graciefox Thank you!
Ahh okay, yeah that makes sense. We have a wool/blend at work that has a similar speckling to it which was why I thought it might be that too. And good to know, I've bounced between a few different sites (one a little more promising on the price) but you could only get 7/8th's of a yard. I'll have to try that out too, as much as I'de like to try and make it from scratch Im not sure if I'll have the time if it's going to take a while to find a fabric relatively close at a good price. That and I need to work on my tailoring lol
I just recently got the McCalls one actually. I'm hoping that the alterations it needs wont be to much of an issue, at least for the vest. After reading through the comments here I never realized just how many details there are to Newt's jacket, especially with the way the back is.
