Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show

Recently I watched the Westminster Dog Show and as a result seem to have become obsessed with needle felting dogs! In January I challenged myself to create a dog a month this year, but unless this obsessions dissipates as quickly as it began there will not be a "challenge element" to my challenge at all. Oh well, I guess I shouldn't complain-it's better than hitting a dry spot and losing interest all together.
I have always shared my life with a dog. Since the death of my husband, I truly would be lost without the companionship of my little mutt Maggie. She is so much more than "just a dog" to me.  I haven't needle felted Maggie yet, but I have done Major- the first dog my husband brought home way back in the late 1970's. Major was our first "child" arriving a few years before the first of our actual children entered our lives. Major was obviously a mixed breed- part German Shepard/part Collie and who knows what else? But he was a good dog that put up with a lot when our real children came into the picture. Here is my tribute to Major.
