I have been working on the Simplicity jacket and about to finish it today. Here are a few shots of the current state of the pattern.

This has been a fairly easy project to sew. The fabric ravels when you look at it; I serged finished all edges before sewing.
I had to reduce the shoulder width by shaving off 3/8 inch. It is not lined. The facings are attached at shoulders and side seam and stitched all around the jacket front and back. I also did a forward shoulder adjustment on the back shoulder and 5/8 swayback adjustment.
Updates to follow.
Looking good!
