This is the first time that I make a fully lined jacket. It really was not as hard as I had thought it would be. It did help that it had simple lines and the outer fabric is a double knit with a bit of stretch. The lining is a cozy and soft flannel.
I have never liked the lining fabrics normally used in jackets. They're cold when you first put the garment on, and stick to you if you are too warm. So I decided to use flannel, which will be much more comfortable for a child to wear.
This jacket is about to be shipped to Pine Ridge, along with several other things. The school principal is back and ready to receive warm clothing for her students. This school goes from pre-K to 12th grade, so just about any child size will fit somebody. For now, here are a couple of photos of the jacket:
