Thank you all for all your nice comments. I am glad you like this jacket/coat. @NellyJane - regarding fabric - it is expensive however I was lucky to buy 2 rest pieces (0,80 cm and 0,70 cm) just enough for my jacket. I had to make different collar as I did not have enough fabric for all parts. The fabric for collar and caffs I have bought as well as rest. All fabrics together costs me about EUR 80,00. Wool/cashmere costs normally about EUR 150,00 per meter - so I was lucky. @CathieBeadsWNC - well, making lining is not so difficult. I have adjusted the part which suppous to be reversible and add pocket. I had some doubts but in the end everything went well together.

This is a wonderful jacket. You did a beautiful job. One question, though: The pattern says it is a reversible jacket, but you seem to have made the lining side with pockets. How did you adjust the pattern to do that?

Would you mind telling us how much the fabric cost you, I see it's a wool/cashmere which I guess wasn't cheap.
