I might enter this project in Pattern Review contest "Lined Jacket" if it is finished on time.
Below, Burda Magazine version





The muslin :

I started by the lining :

I used a Burberry style plaid and followed  Tasia complete instructions to match plaids
folded fabric right side inside


matching plaid before laying out the pattern pieces


pinned fabric to match plaid on both layers of fabric




the whole piece of fabric is pined

seam lines are marked with tailor's tacks
Expert Ann Rowley gives excellent instructions about it here

marked right sides of back pieces ready to be sewn together

center back seam before basting the ease pleat.

The back pleat of the lining is pressed and machine featherstitched through all layers  at neckline, waist, and lower edge.

plaid is perfectly matche. Yeah me !!! I just want to add that tailor tacks seem time consuming but result is worth the effort. I achieved perfectly matched seams without basting just pinning !!!!
Thanks to Ann and Tasia for their invaluables expertise.
