I made my fourth sweatshirt jacket with the latest one with 47 different Asian fabrics but I didn't use a lining or the button but I do like your version too. I did put an inside pocket for cell phone and key needs. This Asian jacket had the length long enough to cover the hips but the sleeves were not long enough. I had to add about 4 inches from an old kids long sleeve tee shirt to both sleeves and joined the sleeve and the additional piece first and then start sewing the fabric.

Makes one think of the cherry blossoms in the spring at D.C.

All beautiful. I'm going to make one, probably buy a new shirt the Jacket itself and a Goodwill shirt to lengthen the jacket and sleeves.

I'm still sorting in my sewing room. I've inherited a blue zillion yards of various laces. I might try just lace on a white shirt. If it's not too dressy!
