Default My Fur coat

Last year I had one of my friends ask me about my coyote trapping. He thought that was pretty cool and asked if I could get some for him to make a coat. I was a little shy about that and matching up colours and such but thought what the heck. I did the best I could and got some hides tanned and sent them to the lady he wanted to make a coat with. He just got the package in the mail the other day and gave his daughter her coat for her birthday. Now he wants more for another daughter and also wants a fox coat made for his youngest daughter lol I love it when you can see your own fur put to use. I think the coat looks pretty good!

Really cool. Also a creative way to market your fur outside the auction house

I think it's great that you got to see your pelts turned into a finished product. The lady wearing that coat looks very happy.
