Sleeves and shoulder pads

I made some fitting adjustments to the shoulder and upper back areas to improve the fit of the jacket this afternoon. I then inserted sleeves and shoulder pads. The only thing left to do is hem the jacket.

I have two dress projects floating around in my head. One with an inserted waist band; I have several dress patterns that have this feature. I plan to use this fabric acquired from Textile Studios several years ago.
I also want to make this Vogue pattern. I have two fabrics I am thinking about using for this one; one was purchased from JoAnn's and the other acquired from Fabric.com.

    Are you enjoying the switch from nearly winter like weather to summer???
