gray dog in a party hat

April 16, 2007

Dscn0001


I made a gray dog today. He is all ready for a birthday party.  I’m enjoying putting all the gray fabric I dyed to use.  I like how the grays look paired together.  The owner of Sui Generis brings her two dogs to work with her and lots of dog owners shop there.  I hope one of them likes this little fellow.

    Well, it’s an obvious comment, but I have to say it: what a party animal! And such a cute one at that! The little party hat is adorable, I especially like the pompom. Is it really attached just with the ribbon tie, or did you sew it on too?

    For some reason I’m really drawn to stuffed animals right now, and this little one is just too cute. The hat takes the cake. Thanks for your inspirational blog!

    He’s got that 1920s chocolate box colour about him.

    So cute! I love that you are able to move from semi-realistic interpreations of animals and their forms to whimsical pieces like these.
