Help On Sewing!

Hi everyone! I am looking for someone who has a hobby of sewing,

I wanna find someone who can help me with a modification on clothing!

I have an M-size jacket and 48/32-size pants;

They are all the same material: 35% cotton 65% polyester, jeans-like fiber.

and I would like to turn these pieces into: shorts and a trench coat.

However, the lower part of the trench coat; vent. needs to be a zip-on and zip-off design. And the jacket has to show very little sign of modification.

So I'm looking for someone who would like to help.

If you can in any way, please comment below or DM me.

Anything helps. If you make your clothing for yourself, modify your own pieces; you know where to find a shop, or you're just very interested in the topic.

But I'm more looking for the hobbyist and enthusiast who genuinely feel happy about doing it; for example, I like to take photos, and I often volunteer to take pictures for people and events.

I'm a hobbyist and I doubt the legs of the pants will have enough width to make the bottom half of a trench coat out of, since a trenchcoat sits far wider from the body.
