Dog Tired

One last dog to add to the current mix- an old hound.

June Dog: Jolene

A friend of mine, a fellow Tart's member, sent me a picture of her workmate's dog and asked if I would make a felted figure of her- Jolene. Here is the picture:

What an incredibly beautiful dog! Also, such a challenge for me- the black becomes literally blinding after a while when working with it. Sounds crazy I know, but I had to keep repositioning it while working because all the black tended to obscure the details. Anyway, enough excuses, here is my interpretation of Jolene.

Basset Hound: April's Dog

I have managed to continue my "dog a month" goal with a sweet basset hound.

So far this year:

Bulldog, Mixed Breed, West-highland Terrier, Afghan, and Basset Hound

March Dog: West-highland Terrier

Bogart

Bogie

Continuing my goal of a dog a month- here is Bogart. He was the second dog I shared my adult life with for thirteen years. My husband brought him home from the SPCA much to the delight of our small children.  He loved our family but not many other people. I would have to tell him to "go to your room" whenever we had guests over and luckily he obediently obeyed me and scampered upstairs until the intruder left. But we all have our faults...other than that character flaw he was a wonderful fellow.

February Dog: Bulldog

February's dog is now complete- a cute little bulldog. He stands 4 3/4 inches tall and approximately 4 inches long.
