dapper doxie duds: springtoberfest


Hello my friends! It's me, Baxter, your roving rover reporter, reporting to you about the latest in springtoberfest fashion, fresh off my mom's sewing machine.  These happy duds are for my friends Quintin and Jewel, who ordered their duds way back when.  Lucky for mom and for Quintin and Jewel, their patience paid off because looky - here are their duds.

This time Jewel and Quintin wanted to celebrate their German heritage in true Octoberfest style.  So first up, a peek at Jewel's dirndl dud, a vision in oranges and green complete with a buckled ruffle edged bodice and removable skirt/apron  and yup your eyes are not fooling u, folk badger trim! 


Now what's a boy to wear when his sister is wearing a dirndl?  Why, lederhosen of course!  Only just like me, Quintin is a mover and a shaker so u know, who needs pants?  So, to keep things nice and lederhoseny, mom made sure to piece in the seamlines and pipe them, and she made a reversible suspender placket featuring acorns and oak leaves, because Quintin and Jewel live very near the city of oaks. This lederhosen look is made from super soft pinwale corduroy and bound in bottomweight twill so Quintin can jump and bump with the mountain billy goats if he wants to, while Jewel collects edelweiss in the mountains.  Unfortunately for me, I am much bigger than Quintin otherwise I would model it for you. But maybe one day mom will make one for me, maybe even with suede or leather!







So that is it for this week in makey my friends! And I don't know about your plans for the weekend, but I think I've got some yodeling to do!  This is Baxter your roving rover reporter wishing you a wonderful yoldel-eh-eee-poooooooooo! :)

of bunnies, and timey wimey stuff




dear diary,
i am sorry i do not have much time to write today but i am busy practicing chasing bunnies for reasons i cannot divulge completely yet.

in other news, i am very excited about watching doctor who tonight and in honor of tonight's premiere i thought i would show u how things are progressing with the doctor who dud that my friend murphy ordered from my mom.  it was pretty much done, but there were a few accessories that mom wanted to make.  like  the timey wimey pocket locket that my mom finally finished as an optional accessory!  and yes if murphy decides to get it, i am pretty sure he is gonna have to promise not to touch it because like me, even though he might like to watch doctor who on television, he probably really does not have enough time to listen to him in person






oh, and there is one more optional accessory that mom made this past week, and that is the time wimey kinda chameleon pin, good for time traveling dogs and humans alike!  something tells me i am going to need my very own doctor who dud, because these accessories are super cool!!


anyhoo diary, i really must get back to operation bunny bun bun so hope u r having a wonderful saturday!!

toodleydoo!

timeparadachsnduks: goodbye yellow brick road

"having left their doctor friend before getting critical information on how to use princess primpnpink's purposefully powerful pedaports, time-adventurers-accidentally-turned-into-girls baxter and duk duk and their soon-to-vanished friend susan carefully consider their options before going through with the only one they can think of.."

fashion sunday: the week in makey make review

"we interrupt our story this st. patrick's day to bring you this very important message from out story's sponsors.."









Oh, okay, is this thing on? Hello, my name is Baxter and you might already know me through my blog, facebook, or  twitter.   I am not a stinky girl, but I play one sometimes in stories like you've been following. And I sometimes do it to help my mom when she has made things that I need to model. And today, we are taking a break from our story because I have many things to model.  Here, let me show you...
















This is the dud my mom just finished for my friend moxie's order.  Moxie is chocolate dapple girl whose fashion inspiration comes from royalty.  New royalty that is, because before  prince willam's wife married him and became the duchess of cambridge, she was plain ol kate middleton.  Who wasn't really plain or old really, just fresh and modern, simply styled and feminine without being too frou frou.  And so moxie's dud needed to be like that too.







Behind the scenes this past week, my mom also finished the duds ordered by my friends Penny and Leroy.  This time Penny wanted a play dud made from a pretty bubblegum pink princess crown print that she picked out herself, and she wanted ruffles too, so after i helped mom look for the perfect trim and coordinating fabrics to match,  I helped her make it! And model it of course!


 Now, if your sister has a princess play dud , what do you think you should have if you were her brother?  Yup, you guessed it, a piratey play dud, because how else are you going to be able to place princess and pirate together?



And can u keep a secret, my friends?  Because I can tell you these duds are very fun to play in and you can even add things from your very own closet - like ohhh...









a pretty purple flower crown so you can sit by the window and watch the butterflies and airplanes fly by with your very best friend...

































or, soon-to-be-fresh in mom's etsy shop,  a super cool pirate hat so you can arrrrrrrr the seven seas! (I hope to help mom put them on etsy Etsy early this week starting maybe even as early as tonight so be on the lookout for the red alert doot doot dooty doot!)
















Okey dokey, well that is it for today.  Boy am I pooped, and not even in a snakey sort of way! I hope u enjoyed looking at all the things I helped mom make this past weel and I hope you have a wonderful coming week!! :)

dapper doxie duds: anthropologically speaking

Today a peekypoo at a happy little purple corduroy dud with cotton lace, velvet trim, and freshwater pearl embellishment that I finished for Gabby in early November but was not able to photograph until now. 





tiny chumley,  of course, was more than ready to hwup and hwup his way into some snackie modeling time and performed ever so wonderfully yesterday, despite the fact that Gabby's tiny dud hardly fit him at all.

hwuuuuuup - hee hee, hey duk duk - can u please get me some safety pins bcuz based on how much velcro i see by the chest strap, this whole dud might blow any min--  no i do not need to go on a diet anymore and u cannot eat my gummy worms bcuz the tushie man said my weight was fine now and -- hwuuuuup - hurreeee - if i do this we can all get snackies!! :) :)
