Any ideas?
I have this beautiful vintage sheepskin coat. It is so big & heavy .It must be very old, the shoulder pads were made out of horse hair & were hand stitched! The sleeves are way too big but I love the cuff detail. I want to make it wearable, I’m thinking bomber jacket shape? I have never worked with sheepskin before . I just don’t want to ruin it. Any ideas & advice would be most welcome 🙂

What would I need to do to fluff it up….? I’ll experiment on an off cut. Thank you 🙂
