Small amounts of stitching are a two second fix. A suit jacket can be relined completely, but it is not cheap to do so.

This can be fixed in the shop in the time it takes you to browse through a couple of fabric books.

If you actually want to reline the whole jacket, it will take considerably more time (and money).

EDIT - I see I should reply faster, since matt's already provided the same answer.
