This jacket has been in my closet for at least 10 years and I have always enjoyed wearing it. The fabric is a wool boucle in a warm cream color. I put it on the other day and realized that the medium sized shoulder pads needed an update so once I finish my pants I am planning to take the shoulder pads out and scale down the sleeves and shoulders and then I hope to wear it another 10 years. It will go nicely with the winter white wool pants. For the spring we are having, sadly wool will be perfect.

Beautiful! You are an inspiration. Tomorrow I'm giving a friend a first sewing lesson. Am also adjusting some store bought pants. Think I need to make a Pooch Tote too, don't you think? Spring has been cool here too but will bolt into hot any minute now. K Q:-)
Love the jacket, I just did that exact alteration on 10 jackets for a friend of mine. She is little like yourself, I just hope the 8o's don't come back any time soon Love your blog! Kathy
