Dyan Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 I just finished 10 of these, what my niece calls, puppy pads. She breeds dogs and needed something for the mommas and puppies to lay on. She priced some, but they looked very cheap to her, so she asked if I could make her some. I had piles of this green jean type of material and piles of double knit that I was never going to do anything with. I was really happy to get rid of it, to tell the truth! And this gave me a great chance to practice, practice, practice!! On some of them I did a puppy paw panto and others I just did a large meander. Again, I am totally impressed with my lovely APQS machine!! IMG_4272 by DyanCT, on Flickr IMG_4274 by DyanCT, on Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustSewSimple Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Wow! You were able to do bunches for her! That is good fun practice and she has something great in return. Do you get a free puppy? What breeds of dogs are going to enjoy your handy work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
