Red Wool Jacket - Never to be Done!

Kim, are you reading this?  You are about to get a partially completed red wool coat!  I made some good progress on the coat last night and sewed for about an hour but then my hands started burning.  I stopped, washed my hands and face and thought all would be OK.  But later in the night I had a bad allergic reaction (not uncommon for me).  So the wool is out - as I suspected it might be.  I'll pack that up today for Kim.  All is not lost though!  I have a black and white silk houndstooth that will make an equally beautiful jacket.  I'll cut that out over Christmas and maybe underline it with some flannel to make it warmer.  I suppose I will now clear out all of the wool from my fabric cabinet as well.  It's a bummer - but it's not surprising.
