Saw a color blocking trick on a jacket I thrifted in Pittsburgh last month

I picked up this old wool jacket at a Goodwill outside Pittsburgh and noticed the seams had this cool color blocking where the lining peeked through just a bit. After a month of wearing it, I finally realized someone hand-stitched the contrast fabric in the cuffs and collar to make it pop. Has anyone else found hidden design details like that in secondhand clothes that gave you ideas for your own projects?

Just my luck finding someone else's craft project before they finished it.

Check the inside of the lining for extra hidden seams or fabric scraps.
