Thanks, I have a wonderful 1920s green metallic silk brocade with dead white rabbit fur collar and cuffs--my Mum recently found me a modern white rabbit fut jacket to replace them but I've never worked with fur before. Katy On Sat, Dec 4, 2010 at 3:38 PM, Cin cinbar...@gmail.com wrote: Vogue

[h-cost] Fur trims advice

2010-12-04 Thread Cin
Vogue Patterns mag Dec 2010/Jan 2011 issue has a realy nice article on working with fur. It has a huge chunk of advice for working with old furs, mending splits, reshaping and more. I dont generally get this mag, but this article was a must have for me. I too, have a closet full of vintage furs
