In my profile pics.

I have had a couple of orders so I'm very pleased

I am making them a little bit bigger as they look better with a bit more 'weight' at the botttom.

They are all really sweet - I love all the cat ones too

Tillyboo · 13/08/2007 16:30

Whizz & Dior, thank-you!

Yes the rose Neddy at the top is the new one.
Just about to start another - best bit is deciding on the design and ribbon.

It's going to be orange and green, sounds dodgy I know but it'll be very funky.

Hi Dior - Pink, Green and Orange Neddy finished. The pic in my profile is a bit too small to see the colours properly but you get the idea.

I'm working on a doggy design today as I have just got some lovely red and white fabric with dogs chasing butterflies etc. A bit like doggy 'Toile' fabric ....

Another cute one

(Idea:could you maybe line the inside & make pyjama cases ? )

Tillyboo · 14/08/2007 09:41

Yes, that's a good idea. I'll have to think about the mechanics of it

I'm doing an Xmas school fayre again this year and I had so many little girls asking me if I had anything horsey last year - this idea would be great !

and a version with a handle = a girlie bag !

Whizzz · 14/08/2007 09:42

you could do a saddle which would be the bags flap !

....the handle could be the reins.........

Blimey ! You lot are on a roll with ideas, fantastic ! Lots of food for thought. Thanks so much.

Just got back from Hobbycraft with a bucket load of ribbons and bits and bobs. Good job it's pee'ing down - good excuse to stay in and 'Make'.

Bought dd a pack of stamps and ink so that'll keep her occupied for quiet some time. She uses all my offcuts of ribbons for sticking too and has a wonderful time.

They are really cute, I really like the contrasting fabric on the red one. Fab!!! Can't wait to see the doggy

Tillyboo · 14/08/2007 15:17

GM - Thanks !

The dog I am currently doing has turned into a sort of sausage dog but I have made up a template of a square'ish dog too.

How you doing with your sales. Have you done your wholesale order yet ? Well done you !!!! It's lots of work but will be well worth it. You've done so well - very chuffed for you.

Oh, well, just grabbed a bite to eat, dd is now watching 'The Wiggles' so I'm back to 'Mr Sausage' ...

Will let you know when he's finished. Just got to finish the applique, stitch him together, stuff him and stitch him up (sounds a bit mean doesn't it - stitch him up and stuff him ... )

I like sausage dogs - they are lovely! I'm going on holiday tomorrow and taking sewing with me (how sad am I?!) so I can get the wholesale order done. I'll be sat by the pool with my bag with me, stitching away, lol!

Gingermonkey · 14/08/2007 16:04

look at this for a sausage dog!!!

Tillyboo · 14/08/2007 18:20

Hi GM, I've finally finished Mr Sausage.

Pics in profile - right and left side have different fabric, felt ears and applique heart on bum.

He was a bit tricky to stitch after stuffing so think I'll only make to order

The fabric isn't too clear but it's really pretty with dogs chasing butterflies etc.

The Etsy sausage dog is well funky. Quite bizarre, but fab !

Like him very much !!

Gingermonkey · 14/08/2007 18:21

omg, he is beautiful. Can I have him, can I, can I?

Gingermonkey · 14/08/2007 18:22

yours, not the etsy one. (who is rather fab too, but yours is superiorly fab - is that a word? I made it up I think!)

Tillyboo · 14/08/2007 18:32

Do you really ??? Fantastic

You are very welcome to him if you want him, I'll send you an email
