    Correct. I realise that it's rather difficult to properly discern what the tweed will look like in jacket form; when all you really have to go by is something on a much smaller scale, such as a tweed swatch. As I stated previously, Tweed B is a very strong contender. I think the tweed would look fantastic with the Chattan tartan in reproduction colours. It's much lighter in overall hue than the darker, gun check tweed that I have now. I'm also drawn to the actual tweed pattern which is also different than the gun check. And I'm sure the mustard and brick red coloured stripes would pop quite nicely against the fawn, loden, and brown background.

    Also, I really like this colour of green material for the lining. I think it compliments Tweed B quite nicely, as well as having a bit of a contrast:
