dapper doxie duds: happily ever after





Yippee! Today a sneaky peeky at some duds finished just in time for  Bogey and Remy to attend the third annual Stafford Oktoberfest Wiener Dog Race in royal style. First up, and modelled by tiny chumley, Bogey's turquoise and scarlet cape, made with rich shimmery velvet and complete with bullion embroidered kingly crests and antiqued brass chain.

mom, how come i don't have one of these?







And next up, everyone knows a knight needs a suit of armor.  But you say he has to race, too? No worries, cuz this is a faux chainmaille and studded leather harness and collar, sleekly cut and bound in tropical weight charcoal gray wool so Bogey can race like the wind.


oooh leather studded dud and collar? mom, how come i do not have one of these either??










And for the little princess Remy? A tiara, of course, and sparkly hand sequined and beaded and lace appliqued removable butterfly wings.  To match her gilded lace and pleated jacquard ribbon harness, bound in  turquoise silk dupioni. And to match her removable ballgown skirt.  Because princess butterflies need to race too
.

moooom, sparkly turquoise sequin and lace and beaded butterfly wings? and a removable ballgown skirt?  



mom promise u will make me something soon?
yes baby dog, i promise. but first help me clean up all the beads and sequins off the floor?

yep and yippee!! :) :)

"I'd luv to roll around in da sequins! Auntie Keren, can I go to Baxter's to play?"

"Well, Guinness, Baxter lives a long way from here. Maybe in November when we take Merlin and Beau to their old fur-ever homes."

"Okey, dokey! I'll start packin'!"

Oooh those are some spiffy duds there, Baxter's mom!
Hmm, maybe I'll have to consider some custom made stuff for Milo in the nearer future!

Annie's Mama said...

WOW, THOSE ARE GORGEOUS!

Glenda Sue said...

Your work says cortieur (sp?) all over, the precision of your stitching, the creativity of your designs, better than anything I've seen anywhere. Could you make my little Chunky Chica a really comfy service vest? Her's is all scratchy and she doesn't like to wear it. Since she is a service dog and I travel with her...it's really something to invest in for her.

Pretty Nelli said...

yeah we have thrifty stores... maybe mom will start searching something blinky for me

kalyxcorn said...
