Here's the jacket DD made. Finished it up today :)

We started out with the jacket pattern found here:
http://www.sewinggarden.com/patterns..._hooded_jacket

There's also a children's version here:
http://www.sewinggarden.com/patterns..._hooded_jacket

She had a bit of guidance, but did the work herself.
We had to lengthen it because she's almost 5ft 9 in tall.
And we decided that the back, which originally called for the horse panel to go all the way to the shoulders, should have a yoke instead.
Quilted with horseshoes.

BTW, I'm one proud mama :D

Yup, lined in red flannel... it's what she wanted
