Everyone have a VERY Merry, and a GREAT New Year!!!

Ok, guys. I intend to make you all cry with jealousy. I just received a Harris Tweed handwoven 100% Scottish Wool sport coat for the Holidays! And it is tailored so well, it fits me like I was born in it! Read um and weep fellas, hahaha.
http://www.harristweed.org/
My Goodness. What a way to make my day. Beats getting a tie, or a pair of socks by miles.

This is close to my pattern. Mine is slightly lighter in color. The fabric is the same.
(https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTySvQwbVsfFlB7Q0cmxdFaGLqOAkLtpsgrDzt9jRM67KO7IPl5Yw)
This is certification patch. That rectangle on the right is the registration number. Mine has a number, but I do not yet know how to look it up. I will research it and see if this number will give me the history of the jacket.
I'm very happy. I could not have been given a better gift.
Cheers to all and Happy Holidays all around!
I'm pouring shots to celebrate. If you all were here, I'd gladly pour you all one too.
SKOL!

I hate to say this publicly – but, mine is rather small. I'd really rather not show it.

Thank you Nancy and Tracy for your efforts here. I know we disappoint you at times, but the temptations are too great... :taz:
To you both, and to everyone here, have a Merry Christmas and to those of other faiths, a happy holiday season.
I don't know what the New Year will bring, but I can always be hopeful. God bless everyone.

Now I know what I put my Dad through. Its after 11PM, and Im long past ready for bed, yet my son is wide awake, asking me to check Santa Tracker one more time. Do I again this year have to set my alarm for 3AM to set presents under the tree?
Merry Christmas Yawn

I've posted this picture before in Luis' Way Back Thursday thread - but I think it's appropriate here too. This is me as a little girl in 1959 having a tea party with my babies on Christmas Day, in front of our Charlie Brown Christmas tree.
Merry Christmas everyone - I hope your Christmas is wonderful. I love all of you guys!

Merry Christmas to everyone!

There is something very special about black-and-white photos. Don't ever colorized it!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! May you all experience great joy in the coming year.
