Yeahbut!!!

When Hotdog was being an adventurer in the garden the other day she found a secret teeny tiny door.

Being the curious king of dog that she is she had to open it.

Well, would you believe it, out of this door came some Yeahbuts. These curious little creatures are adorable and everso slightly mischievious. They have been living at the end of the garden for as long as they can remember but they said they are more than happy to go out into the big bright world to give cuddles to us Giants.

Agyness Yeahbut

Hugo Yeahbut

Trunip Yeahbut

These are the first 3 that were brave enough to come and play with a pack full of sock puppies and they decided to stay in the warm for a bit. They said they quite liked the magic box on the side that showed colourful pictures and they adore all the pups as well.

I Miss My Shoes

I'm having an attack of The Frumps this week!  I miss my beloved cat shoes.

 I know what you're thinking, a 38 year old mother of 3 should not be wearing such silly shoes but I really really loved them. Unfortunately they went to shoe heaven last summer.  I need to find a replacement, something fun.  Any ideas?

Adventure Puppy

Hotdog's cousin, Vlad, is on an adventure!  He left London to go snowboarding in Canada.  Before he even got there he got snowed in at Gatwick...oh the irony!

Here's a little snippet of what he has been upto!

I think Hotdog is a little bit jealous.

When the Dog Meet the Bunny....

They wished.

It was Hotdogs great pleasure to meet the famous Widget yesterday. The Bunny Maker put out a request for a day out at Kitty Pinkstars Wishing Tree.  Hotdog read the request and then went running round the house like a mad thing until I agreed to take him.

So yesterday we packed up our things and made the journey over to Upton Country Park near Poole and met up with the Bunny Maker, her lovely son, Widget and The Bunny King.  We had a yummy cuppa, saw some Peacocks and then went for a bumpy walk to the Wishing Tree.

Hotdog was worrying that we would not be able to find it, how wrong he was!  It's very unmissable - or BRIGHT might be another way to put it.

The tree is beautiful, especially on a dull day, it's positively glows.  The wishes are fantastic to read and so many of them. So keep up the fantastic work Kitty. (psst click her name to go see her sock creations, they are cool)

This was one of my favourite wishes, Hotdog told me to stop being so soppy!

Hotdog left his wish, I said maybe it was a little bit on the greedy side but he was adamant, that was his wish.

WE LOVE YOUR WISHING TREE KITTY PINKSTAR

Jeremy

We had some family and friends over last night for our last Knit Club of 2009 (1st rule of Knit Club is you don't talk about Knit Club)! Needless to say not much knitting went on and lots of drinking happened.

I set my sister a challenge and gave her my box full of socks....create a sock creature I said and I gave her some books for inspiration.  Well she took up my challenge with great gusto, scissors and socks flying, and a while later Jeremy was born!!

Can you see him??

There he is!!

He's so diddy!

Anyway, it is with much pleasure that I wish you all a Very Very happy New Year.

Enjoy your last evening of 2009 everyone, woohoo........

Albert's in Holland

Hotdog and Me received a wonderful email from Albert Barkley today, he's has gone to live in Holland!!

He says -

Since a couple of weeks I'm living in Holland with Tessa.
I really like it here and I've made a couple of friends already:
Little Spotty and Maureen, two bunnies made of socks.
Just like me!
And Mister Jummy.
He looks a bit scary, but he is very friendly!

The otherday when I was sniffing around the house, I found some DVD's that I love!
Tessa has a lot of Poirot DVD's!

A couple of days ago, it began snowing in Schiedam.
So Tessa took me and the bunnies out and let us play in the snow.

 

I'm going to sniff out how the DVD player works!

Woof,

Albert

Pleasey Weasey Vote For Measey!

Hotdog has entered Brian into a Halloween Competition and he needs all the votes he can possibly muster.

If you have a spare few moments would any of you wonderful people be able to go over and give him some votes.  It will do wonders for his self esteem!!

http://www.craftjuice.com/search2.php

When Dave went missing he really went into himself and even the arrival of Colin and Jefferey, the other SKELLY DOGS, didn't make him join in.  Dave2 came along and went onto his new owner and the original Dave miraculously appeared again (but never told where he had been or what wonders he had seen!) and even these fab events didn't make him happy.

Hotdog believes and I have to agree that getting these votes will show him that people do care about him and maybe he will start to join in again.  So please, vote for Brian and give him that much needed ego boost.  Hotdog and Me and ALL the puppies will be very very grateful.

The Wanderer Returns

Dave's Back!!!

At this moment in time he STILL isn't saying anything so your guess is as good as ours as to where Dave has been over the last 3 weeks!  However, he is safe & well, has had a good meal and is now settleing in with his new human.

To Custom or Not to Custom

I have had a couple of custom orders lately and found this to be quite an inspirational way of crafting.  Firstly it makes you think outside of your comfort zone and then once you have completed the finished project it ends up spawning a million new ideas.  What could be better than that?  Win win as far as I can see.

Here are some piccies of my custom orders, they were really fun to make.

We have Lucky Woofswell, Johnny Rottweiler and Vlad.
