Went thrifting yesterday with DH on the look-out for puzzles, our latest faze, when I stumbled upon a vintage black "stipple quilted" coat-You know the kind the ladies wore back in the 30's-40's? I think that's what its called. It was listed for 19.00 and I should have snagged it, but of course I didn't-Ugggh!

Going on line later to do some research do you think I could find a photo of that style of coat? I think the hats were more popular than the coat.

Does anyone know what I am talking about LOL? I would love a clearer description of the "style" if anyone knows it would be greatly appreciated!

I think I know what you mean. It sounds pretty but I would have a hard time paying $20 for it unless I needed a coat and it was the right weight.

It was heavy Alee and in beautiful condition-I wouldn't wear it though too small, but I thought of making hand "muffs" out of it or pillows....

Maybe I should go back and get it? Don't you hate when that happens? You find something think about it and then when you get back home you wished you bought it?
