| From the wool/cashmere coat I made a few extras ... also heirloom memories. |
 |
| I made two blankets for the teddies to sit on: one side is from the coat lining (one blanket has the coat's monogram), the other side is the wool/cashmere coat. I added the label (I personally love vintage labels), and each blanket has one of the coat's beautiful vintage buttons sewn on a corner. |
 |
| Well, when I looked a the coat's sleeves I had to turn them into traveling/storage bags for the teddies. |
