Notes	I wanted a warmer jacket for indoor and outdoor use. There is thermal padding between the lining and the main fabric. I had to take in quite a lot from the back again, as you can see from one of the pictures. That is a common problem with the back of all garments. Apparently the sides are also too wide. The shoulder line, which descends to a different level, also causes problems with the fit of the back. The main jacket is a combination of wool blend bouklee and scuba. The jacket has 2 main pockets and an inner pocket. I changed the collar to a stand-up collar. I omitted the belt this time. I brightened up the inside with bright stitching. There is no room to move in a jacket that is too tight. I don't mind good tips on fit.
