So...in the meantime, I'm doing a trial run of a Butterick jacket pattern that I've been wanting to sew for some time. I don't want to cut it out yet in my chosen fabric without doing a muslin first. So I chose a floral corduroy that I'm not that particularly fond of. I combined it with some vintage root-beer plaid shirting, using it in some flange seam inserts and some bias binding on the collar and cuffs. Here are some pics so far...

I really like the floral combined with the plaid. What a nice combination.
