    I bought a leather coat at a yard sale. In my euphoria regarding the awesome price, I failed to notice that the coat is way big on me. Has anyone ever had a leather coat tailored and does anyone have any recommendations about where to go?

    I have used this shop for years and they are awesome, but not sure about a leather coat.

    I don't know about coats, but I've had good luck with other leatherwork at the shoe place two doors up from Diva Espresso on Fauntleroy, in the Triangle area. A regular tailor might not have the heavy-duty equipment for leather, and I've seen this guy work on shoes and bags/purses, so you might want to drop by. Very reasonable prices, too.
