Anyone know where I can get my Dad's old Sheepskin coat altered- into a gilet, perhaps?

[AngelinaJolly]

or even a pair of scuffs too??

are there any specialist sheepskin boffs out there?

LOl
oyu know this is a shit idea

Her FaTher could have passed away!

I think it sounds like a great idea, but no idea how to go about it.

Why do you think that BC?

I'm serious; my Dad did indeed pass away 9 years ago and I've dealt with most things by now, however I can't bring myself to part with his sheepskin coat. So I'm interested in finding a way to make it useable and enjoyable and to stop it gathering dust in my front porch.

Is that so unreasonable in today's throwaway-fashion world?
I, for one, still value real quality.

sorry he is dead and all but dh came back form hsi parents house witht he WORSt EG OF THE KIND int eh world
it WAs still sheep i recky

I think it's a lovely idea too give your Dads coat a new life

How about getting it made into a lifetimes supply of slippers? It'd be a shame to have it made into something that will inevitably go out of fashion.

It might be a long shot, but I suspect these people might be willing to help you if you go for slippers.

Thanks TTSP, that's interesting but ideally I'd like a gilet- I think I'd get some use out of it. There is one specialist cobbler in my town so he might have a lead- will ask tomorrow.
