The YLF crew helped me, a month or so ago, to select from between two winter coats for next year. (I know, I know -- it's in the 80s here on the East coast today, and the thought of winter coats is *so* unappealing, but I was determined to buy one in the amazing post-season sales.)

This is the one I ended up keeping -- forgive the blurry picture taken with my old camera: http://s649.photobucket.com/al.....nt=131.jpg

Obviously the sleeves needed shortening, but Angie suggested hemming the bottom up three inches as well. Now, when I looked at the photo, I thought the length looked fine and it would never have occurred to me to hem it, but I took her advice and had it done. Well, it came back from the tailor's today, and that three inches made such a difference! See for yourself: http://s649.photobucket.com/al.....G_0125.jpg

Thanks, Angie!
