    Thanks ChattanCat for Tweed Jacket Conversion

    My wife found a Harris Tweed jacket at a rummage sale for $5. Right size. So off to ChattanCat who did the conversion. He shortened it, sealed up the pockets and moved the flaps up, made epaulets out of the excess fabric, sealed up the center vent in the back, created two side vents, and changed out the buttons. Any thing else, Wally? A job well done. I wore it this morning and got a lot of complements.
