Thanks for all the good suggestions for an appropriate fabric to make the shirt/jacket. I have ordered some swatches of shantung, poly/cotton, cotton/lycra.
And, thank you for the nice comments about my gray felted jacket. I appreciate each and every one. Sewing is an isolated art , and it's wonderful to be able to share ideas with one another. I have learned so much through your blogs.
A verification word popped up recently that I liked. It is: BLOGET. I will use that word in place of "bloggers".

The gray appliquéd jacket is so gorgeous! I only saw it now; haven't quite caught up after vacation. I also think the gray and accent colors suit your red hair very well!
Bloget is a prettier word!!!
Well I would like to thank you dear Gwen because you are always supportive of my sewing projects, I appreciate the nice comments you leave on my blog! And thank you for sharing your beautiful creations too :)
Well, I've learned a lot from your blog and find inspiration from your varied projects. So thank you! Keep blogging, bloget!
Like Cecili, I appreciate the comments you leave on my Blog. You are so inspirational to me.
Are you making the top and jacket in Red?
The shantung poly-cotton blend will make a great jacket with its sheen and a subtle slub.
Thank you for the lovely compliment on my dress.
Hi Gwen! I just saw your comment on my blog about the Big 4 patterns. Actually, I love most of them. Only a few stinkers here and there. The fit is fairly predictable, the instructions are usually very good, and tracing off is a breeze. The convenience of a Burda subscription is nice, but the pattern sheets put me off. And you CAN'T beat the value of $1 or $2 pattern sales.
