New addition to the Family

We have a new addition to the Family...His name is Dewey and he is now about 14 weeks old and belongs to Nichole...she shares him with us! When she first introduced him, she made it perfectly clear that there were 2 rules we had to follow....#1 being "no table food"..which we agreed with...who wants a dog begging at the table? #2 was (and she was looking directly at me) no clothes on this animal! That was OK too, because it hadn't even entered my mind to start sewing him outfits!

Earlier this week, Nichole and Dewey came to visit....she brought Dewey into the bathroom, shut the door and we could hear the rustling of plastic bags and soft chuckles....and out they came! Nichole had broken down and put clothes on her dog!!!! She excused it by saying she was entering him in a contest at the local Pet Shop and the top prize was a years supply of FREE dog food.....She and Julie (the "other" Grammie) had each bought him an outfit to wear.

Dewey the thoroughly embarassed (but adorable) puppy....

And now as the colder weather is settling in, Nichole has suggested that maybe he could use a little warm jacket....and he does need one, so into the sewing room I will go and see what I can make...something plain, simple, with no ice cream or squirrel motifs!
