That is so very special and thank you for sharing that. It sounds like you have had a very close relationship with your Grandmother. I was close with my Grandma too. I miss her so much!

In the 90's she had a bear made out of it. She died in 2005 and now I have the bear. It is treasured. :)Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07391528380412768807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5806092819661619564.post-13060624355262514902009-02-02T23:19:00.000-05:002009-02-02T23:19:00.000-05:00Thank you for sharing this wonderful family story!...Thank you for sharing this wonderful family story!

I'm not a big fan of real fir coats, but when it's a family heirloom I completely understand the importance and sentimentality associated with the item. In fact, I have a fir stoll stored away that belonged to my Great Grandma. So you see? I get it! What I wanted to tell you for sure, though, is that I loved how you re-used that coat to create momentos for other members of your family!! Ever time I come across my GG's stoll I wonder what the heck I'm going to do with it. I refuse to send it to good will! You've definitely given me an idea worth considering! <BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing such a touching, personal story!!<BR/>Victoria (one half of Design Ties)DesignTieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02561438683476880640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5806092819661619564.post-30729433395998513282009-02-02T15:32:00.000-05:002009-02-02T15:32:00.000-05:00Wonderful story and great thing to do with the coa...Wonderful story and great thing to do with the coat!<BR/>Linda QLinda Qhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10966596203067701098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5806092819661619564.post-73473662219665223482009-02-02T15:18:00.000-05:002009-02-02T15:18:00.000-05:00What a wonderful story and how clever of you to ge...What a wonderful story and how clever of you to get bears made to share your Grandmothers coat.
