Sweet projects, SweetPups!

The dog rescue that has my heart, SweetPups, has had a large number of special medical needs.  This means that the demand for Glenna Tucker's  resources and time has greatly increased.  And she was already stretched thin!  In a way to help out, I offered to donate all monies from any orders placed by SweetPups fans.  I was so excited that we did have some participants in my mini fundraiser. So during my 3 1/2 weeks in Austin, I was able to visit wonderful fabric stores, do some sewing and get ready for embroidering. And today all the projects were mailed out!

This first group was a gift for the mommy who received the over-the-top wall hanging mentioned in a previous post.   Becky Howey made arrangements for Sweet Viviana. The cupcake burp cloth is edged in cheetah print.  I think it is really a fun combination. The crown was my first attempt at adding another element.

Another project was for soft, delicate feminine fabrics. Sweet baby Evelyn isn't due for a few months but I hope they work well for her.

We have some more SweetPups projects coming up in future.  

Other fun projects this week:  
Using new fabric from the FABULOUS Stitch Lab in Austin, a friend ordered this fun set.

And the last project was for a very special baby.  I have known Dahlia's daddy since he was a little boy!  How fun to see pictures of this sweet new baby with her parents, grandparents, and auntie.  Good job, Penny and Chad!
