Twinkle Toes

I have finally finished stitching lilies gown.  I have rewarded myself by beading up her tiny feet.  I just love how a piece comes together when the beads slot beautifully into all the gaps.  Now I just have to finish up the stitching of her right wing and her heads, then she is done.  But I love her feet, she's like a twinkly ballerina.


My other project this week has been grooming the Bumpy Dog.  I haven't shown her for a year or so now but I'd like to get her back in the ring, perhaps in a veteran class or two.  But there is an awful lot of fluff to deal with before we acheive show condition again.  I've made a start but I'm not finished yet by a long stretch.  However I amused myself by taking before and after photos.  This represents about 2 hours work.  I think I've got another 3 or 4 hours left, then done!!

I have also finished my exchange item, stitching, beading and all the finishing  :-)  I've ordered the nice charms to go on it.  Thanks for your help with my dilema xx

Twinkle toes!! Your dog is beautiful! and his hair is really silky. Lots of grooming though and I;m sure there's tons of black fluff everywhere! He must be a good doggie if you can put him in a show.

Oh what beautiful twinkly toes :D Your dog is lovely, I'm sure you will enjoy showing her, she will probably enjoy it too.... as long as she doesn't mind all the grooming? :D

Those twinkle toes are too cute!! I love them :) Your dog is so beautiful. She looks like she needs a hug from me, lol. :) Have fun showing her, I bet doing something like that is a blast.

Congrats on finishing up your Chatelaine Exchange stitching! I just finished mine as well, I am still debating on a finishing technique!
