Seeing that blanket only doubled my need though. I understand. I don’t even have enough raccoons in my history to make such a blanket. It would be nice to have one made from your own furs, but by the time you calculate the time and work involved plus the cost of tanning and then have it sewed, I feel like I got a deal just buying one outright You make a really good point. I'm still planning on doing some smaller projects myself but if I get something big like a blanket I should just buy it. It's disappointing that some things are cheaper to buy than to get supplies and do yourself.

Too many pinups in the past of naked ladies on bear skin rugs! Created some dangerous ideas! That is exactly what he thought!!!

Foot Tickler trapper F Joined: Feb 2024 OH	I'm working on both a yote and coon comforters. I think I'm getting close. I realize in the long run it'll cost me a lot more money to have one made from my own furs but I know me and the satisfaction I'll get from laying under a blanket that was the result of my blood, sweat, and tears is something I probably couldn't put a price tag on. The issue I have is with so much color variation in the coons and yotes where I trap, I actually have to catch a heck of a lot more to make a blanket if I want it to be uniform. I just picked up a nice female this morning that will probably be added to the blanket pile as a matter of fact.

In all seriousness, I wouldn’t let any pet on it unsupervised.
