red dog

2 posts in one day- CRAZY! But, I’m still behind and I like to post things here before I put them in my Etsy shop.

I could iron his ears down but I like them looking so enthusiastic.

Black Pug Girl

And the last pug for now.

6:25:blackpug1A black dog is very hard to photograph. Either you can see the details and everything is overexposed or the colors are correct and the face is too dark. Oh well. She looks adorable in real life!

6:25:blackpug2A few overexposed photos so you can see her cute face.

preppy pug

And now back to the happy pugs!

6:20:pug3a6:20:pug3b6:20:pug3c6:20:pug3d6:20:pug3eI do like making these cuties! And here she is with her friend.

6:20:pug3fBoth dogs have cashmere coat fabric bodies. Her ears are also cashmere, his are alpaca. Their “jackets” are wool. Her skirt is a cashmere sweater ribbing.

sad pug

Well, the pug isn’t sad. I am. I sewed up this fellow, turned him then stuffed him. I sewed on his face, his scarf and his buttons. And then I held him out to admire him and…

6:19:pug2aCan you see it? There is a yellowish line about an inch down from the edge of his jacket. That’s a problem with working with recycled materials- they have a history to show. The line looks to me like a hem line and it is not going to come out. It is more of a wear line than a stain. If I’d noticed earlier I could have cut around the mark. Oh well. Everything does not come out perfectly. That is what handmade is all about.

6:19:pug2b6:19:pug2c6:19:pug2dI still think he is totally adorable. I am just not sure what I’ll do with him.
