Rabbit Fur Jacket Transformation to Rabbit Fur Vest

When my friend and client ask if would convert her Rabbit Fur Jacket to a vest after an unfortunate accident, her dog chewed a huge hole in it, I said I would try with no guarantee.  

I was not feeling this project at all.  I had not worked with fur alterations before so I was a little hesitant.  I spent a great amount of time staring at the inside of the jacket trying to figure out how I was going to come up the look I wanted and my client would be happy with.
