Debbie 's Sable Coat Transformation.

Debbie's coat was in excellent condition.!!! The fur was soft and supple and easy to work with. She chose to use her lining. The lining was beautifully embroidered with wonderful detail. For this particular coat I chose to have the fur all running in the same direction. The lining was highlighted with a beautiful rose quilting pattern. The border around the original backing was a contrasting brown color, that picked up the colors of the embroidery.  The final dimensions of the throw was 52 inches by 53 inches.
