I thought this was cool.......
Ok, so I have this jacket that I've had for about a year now and until recently I couldn't for the life of me figure out what to do with it. So I was standing in Local 15's office and an idea popped into my head. The jacket is a half sleeve jacket, made out of black rabbit fur, it's really ripped up, the sleeves weren't supposed to be that short, I think someone else cut them off(I got it second hand), so it's pretty beat up, but it's one of my favorite articles of clothing because I think it's really pretty, and it's super warm. Anywho....the idea I had for it was this: I want to gather a bunch of scraps of rabbit fur of all different colors and make it into a trench coat with long flared sleeves. The reason I'm posting this is because I want it to be a more emotional piece, and I was thinking about how I would do that and I decided that I wanted to gather scraps of rabbit fur from people I knew, or from the various communities that I am a part of, so I'm wondering if any of you have any rabbit fur you don't need/want. The size and shape of the pieces doesn't matter at all, as long as it's rabbit. I think if I can get enough to finish this project it will be a really cool tribute to the various people who have touched and contributed to my life. So yeah, if you've got any rabbit fur laying around it'd be really cool if you could donate it to this project.
