Woof! Woof! Woof!

I am so excited to have one of my Holiday Dog Collars featured in the 50 Gifts under $20 Gift Guide in the November/December issue of The Bark magazine! What a thrill and an opportunity for meeting new people and discovering their dog interests! And a real delight to have something I'v created appear in a national publication!

Here is the one featured! Check out my shop to discover other Pet Boutique items! (And there are items for people and homes as well!)

A Favorite Flower

I love crocheting this flower and think they are adorable. They would look really nice as an embellishment on other items, or with a pin on the back, as a brooch!

Aren't these just the most adorable creations? They come from the shop of Nanasue, way down under in Australia! She makes these cute animals, and not only shares those with others, but also promotes others in the Etsyhooker crochet group! How sweet is that! You will want to visit her shop at

http://www.nanasue.etsy.com/ And, she has also created a really nice treasury featuring her crocheting colleagues. You can visit that treasury and see a wide variety of items created by talented crocheters at http://www.etsy.com/treasury_list.php?room_id=57783

I appreciated so much being included in her treasury!
