OH, oh, spill ......They are fab, now where did they come from ??

 

[TC]

Oooooh, you made them, didn't you missy (w00t) Soooo talented :thumbsup:

The boys look gorg in their new creations :wub:

Please let me know if you are taking orders :- "

 

[~elizabeth~]

Darn, you guessed (w00t) Do they really look that home-made :b ?

The colours are a bit odd, as I'm using up oddments from my rocking horse saddlery, I'm testing them to see how the soft suede (and my stitching) holds up with all that puppy tugging and scratching :b .

 

[jue332]

Very nice, clever you :thumbsup:

 

[TC]

Noooo, you've got the wrong end of the stick (I read your post somewhere else that said that you had made a collar :- " )

They look fantastic Elizabeth, really really professional, and I'd definitely buy them. Have you made them just for your boys, or is this something you're thinking of going into?

They really are lovely :thumbsup:

I've got lots of soft leather/suede pieces left over from making rocking horse saddlery, it's a shame to waste it as it's quite expensive and the puppy needs an intermediate collar. My fingers are very sore from hand-sewing the double bits, I'll see if I get better at it. I need to practice a bit more with my mother's old Singer too - until a couple of days ago I hadn't actually touched a sewing machine since I was 12 (w00t) :b

They are beautiful collars - surely you don't need all of those for yourself :- "

Well you're doing a damn fine job, and I can't see any blood stains (w00t)

Don't laugh, but I've been knitting recently :b and I feel like I've got RSI for the first 10 minutes that I'm knitting and then it seems to wear off :wacko:

If you've got any brown and cream, I'd love one to roughly match the two in my sig pic :b I can always draw round Stripey Bum I mean Ruso's collar and post you a template :- " If I'm too cheeky, just tell me to shut up :thumbsup:

They do look fab :thumbsup: .......One looks Tink sized, and poor old Vinnie needs a new collar to call his own .........

There might not be any left for Guto at this rate :*

 

[Cornish]

Wow they are Fab,...... your whippies look very snazzy

Well done

 

[jools]

Seriously, I'm sure you could sell some on here (I am interested for one) any chance of taking orders??

 

[Seraphina]

They are beautiful. How did you manage to handstich them so straight! :unsure:

 

[05whippet]

[Ellen]

Many greetings

Don't laugh, but I've been knitting recently  :b and I feel like I've got RSI for the first 10 minutes that I'm knitting and then it seems to wear off  :wacko:

I know, I can't knit anymore, it knackers my wrists.

If you've got any brown and cream, I'd love one to roughly match the two in my sig pic  :b I can always draw round Stripey Bum  I mean Ruso's collar and post you a template :- " If I'm too cheeky, just tell me to shut up  :thumbsup:

Sorry, that makes sense to me now. :blink: :b Let me see if I can find any cream leather first.

I think I was too excited to string a sentence together :b The collars that the boys have are absolutely beautiful but they are very padded and would be too thick for a pup, even if I bought IG size, so when I saw yours I just got a bit excited as they are soft and thin enough to be perfect for little puppy necks, but would still match the boys :- "

No pressure whatsoever, and if you've no cream it's no worries, honestly :thumbsup:

I think this thread has proved you could sell loads (w00t)

Thanks Elizabeth :cheers:

Having felt one in the flesh as it iwere I can say that they are beautifully made, ever so soft and VERY smart. :thumbsup:
