The coral plant was a smaller version as a gift from a friend. She calls it Angel Wings. Although I took pictures, the lower right seam needed a little more pressing. I actually love the feel and drape of the fabric.

 

 Adjustments: Added 4" to the jacket and 5" to the skirt.

 Embellishment: Polyester roses by the yard from JoAnn Fabrics. Roses were stitched horizontally between each rose so as not to distort the roses. The facing was added, then the roses and the buttonholes before completing the lining.

I considered stitching a vertical line on the right side of the buttonholes, but did not want the line on the right side of the fabric.
