I adapted this jacket from Indygo Junction Trench Topper Pattern 1J740 using a wool geometric houndstooth fabric.   I added a red topstitched polyester satin lining...and used frogs to close the jacket.   I fashioned a fabric "belt" in the back with button trim to make the jacket slightly fitted thru the midsection and add some soft gathers to the fit.   This is definitely one of my favorites to wear.   Hope you like it to.
