I have the reddish blonde coyote already sold. I’m going to keep the cat as a wall hanger. I will try to sell the other coyotes in local craft markets.

Doesn’t look too difficult except sewing in the liner. Any advice would be appreciated.

Good luck with that, there's really no decent forum for projects on this site. I've tried to get one going, but a definite no-go for some reason.

Finishing (putting in the lining) is done by hand and not difficult.
Make the lining and leave a seam at the top open that is big enough to pull the hat thru after you have sewn it around the brim.Sew good to good(inside out) and pull it right side out when done then close the open seam on the inside top of the lining with a baseball stitch.

Good lookin fur!
Trapper John up at Emporia got me hooked on Moyles many years ago. I don't know that they are very fast, but the final product is 2nd to none!

Good info, everything I've watched states to leave the open seam at the back/bottom of the hat. Very interesting thanks for your insight!

You can do it that way also if you want to.
I find it easier and neater closing up the lining only.

Got my ermine and mink back from moyles a couple weeks ago. Very very nice. I put the ermine on a board for a day or two to bring them back into a more presentable form. Before re stretching on the left then after on the right.

That place is great. For a little more money you can get them back in about a month.

With Moyle........

50% more equals 40 day turnaround. This is quite a bit more money.

10% more equals 90 day turnaround. Much more reasonable.

Regular processing time (depends on time of year, you really need to call and ask) regular listed price. Enter the order online (requires upfront payment) gets you 30 faster turnaround.

Thank-you. They will be beaded bags or quivers, I have yet to try my hand at quill work. I skin everything except coon with feet. I'd rather have them and not need them, than not have them and need them.

The finished ermine look awesome. Are the red and blue tags a key ring type thing for ID? How do they hold up during the tanning?

Moyles puts the zip ties in the ermine. They definitely come back wadded up. The price is a bit ludicrous imho, but I haven’t had any damaged yet .
