Collar and topmost closeup so you can see the button against both the sherpa and the suede.

4 buttons?

Since I made it reversible, I now need 12 buttons, not the 8 I bought (which was 2 extra). I tried 4, it looked OK, but 6 is better. Hope I can find 4 more ...

6 Buttons?

My best guess is early 1980's. I made View A at that time. This time, I made View C, lower right.

Idea was to mimic a sheepskin jacket, so I put the collar on sherpa to suede and vice vers.

I lapped all the seams so it could be reversible.

There is a rectangular side piece which gets attached to the sleeve, then this assembly is attached to the jacket front & back (already together at the shoulder).
