    That looks very, very nice. Well done!

    Beautiful job! I like the braiding on the shoulders.
    The question is not why-the question is why not.

    My husband makes them. They look and feel so much like antler that it's amazing. It sure cuts down on time it takes toconvert the jacket, although it's a fairly expensive process.
