A linen jacket

This is a jacket I made a couple of years ago. It's made of a navy linen fabric. This is made with Simplicity 8177 pattern. 

I had a black fabric with a pattern on it, and I decided to use it as a back panel as shown below. 

As I was running out of the navy blue linen fabric, I used contrasting fabrics (remnants I had in my stash) in the hidden places just for fun. 

This is a nice jacket to use in warmer days at night or in the morning.
