[QUOTE="Sandra, post: 453453, member: 3335"]Annlemy, if this is going to be a DIY project, please let us know how you achieve a squared or rectangular piece for the throw. I have my mother's full length mink lurking in a cedar chest and have not had the confidence to tackle a project with it. Considering that the coat back would flare from the neckline to the hemline, there will be some piecing from the sleeves and front required. If the skins are brittle, it may be a challenge to join the pieces. All I know is that it is recommended that the fur is cut from the skin side with a scalpel or razor blade. Good Luck with the throw![/QUOTE]
