Make It Yourself: Military Cropped Jacket

Back in May, I showed you how to make a military skirt out of a trench coat. Remember? In that post, I mentioned to save the trench coat leftovers because we would use that to make another project at a later time. Well, that time has come! We'll transform the top of the trench coat into a cropped jacket. Follow the link below for step-by-step instructions and sew away ;)
