I want to find a basic 'stadium Jacket' pattern to alter to fit me. I want just a slight 'A' line to allow me to move around in it. Thanks for your interest.

The dark brown in all fabrics is the same color brown, and as any one who quilts knows, brown is a hard color to match. (Almost as hard as matching black.)
Bless you. I have some beautiful faux mink fur from the old stretch and sew days. Do any of you remember? I also have a lovely piece of leopard print from 19...... in a short sheared fabric. Never dreamed of combining them but then, why not?
