    About

    I saw this book in craft store, flipped through it, and thought I could turn this into a side business. Not. Each dog is as individual as the breed with their own challenges (like getting the legs to stay under the dog). It took maybe three weeks to complete. So I decided to just make a few and give them away as gifts. The poodle was for an interior designer friend of my boyfriend. She had two gorgeous standard poodles (one black and one gray). It now sits in a display case in her home. In addition to the poodles, I made two dachshunds and a King Charles Cavalier spaniel. Suffice it to say, they all loved them.
