Happily, I've finished my first garment.
While the jacket has been cut since (would you believe February, YIKES!!), I've been sewing it haphazardly - a bit here, and a bit there but decided I needed to get it out of the way so I can move on to other things.

Your jacket looks really nice! I really like the front styling and lapels. I figure as long as the cloth doesn't have moth holes... it doesn't matter how long ago it was cut! Well done!

It really doesn't matter if it takes weeks - you got there, that's the main thing. Looks good.
