Better pictures of the weekend clay creations


The girl who requested these mentioned the dog has a scar on her face from a cat scratch that grew in white.
I LOVE details like that, as it makes something so much more unique and identifying!


And that Cattle Dog  I mentioned.

Busy weekend!

I sculpted all Friday night, and most of Saturday
I worked Saturday night, 6pm-6am
napped a bit when I got home Sunday,
and started projecting when I awoke.
Sewing!
I haven't sewn in the LONGEST time. I miss it. quite dearly.
It's getting cold out, and both Franklin and Dahlia HAVE hair, but it is very short, so I decided they needed coats, and what a better design than Auburn love. So excited to make Dahlia's still and warm her in style.
This one (the blue) and the orange below are the same jacket, it's "reversible". So whatever color Franklin feels like wearing, he can.
The small designs are actually from other material that I had scrap remnants of. I know they'd be a cool addition to a project one day, just wasn't sure what or when.
Glad I saved them. I couldn't love their touch to the jacket any more!


Clearly Franklin loves his jacket. (He actually doens't mind it!)
I am sure he especially won't mind going on longer walks now.

And this was his second jacket.
Less design involved for me, because the fabric came with the pattern.


And here are my clay creations for the weekends.
Belgian Tervurens. 
Gorgeous dogs. 
These are Christmas presents for the parents of one of the oncology residents at my school.
She was so very nice about sharing her photos of these beautiful dogs! I only hope my clay creations can do them some justice!

This is Loki. A male, who has the most gorgeous mane. Honestly, I have never seen such a gorgeous dog.



This is Loki with another dog of theirs, Piper.

and Piper more up close.
I had so much fun doing their colors.

I also worked on an Austrailian cattle dog this weekend, which was fun to mix the colors for, but I cannot seem to get the pictures to show up correctly on here. 
I promise to share them later!
:-)

As for now, off to bed! The weekend wore me out!

Thankful Gifts

I enjoy the people I work with, and enjoy showing them.
 
One of my friends is from the Virgin Islands, and her dogs are still there.
This was made after one of them.
 
An ophthalmologist's pick!


 
I really enjoy making random gifts for people.
Where else would you find a horse's retina on a pin?
Yeah, no where.
 
That's why I love it. :-)

Kitten in a Case

I got this request, to make a cat who has recently passed away... Beloved family cat that lived to be 18!
She frequently slept in her owner's violin case, so she had me specialize her in that way.


I must say, I am enjoying cats much more these days!
Maybe I will accomplish my Suki in the near future!

Samoa, my sweet orphan.


Pure religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress, and refusing to let the world corrupt you. James 1:27

I finally felt like dwelling on my girl this weekend. Watching sad movies probably set the tone..
I am so grateful to have gotten to show her love. 

She wanted to be a guardian. 

This is her tribute. I kept her little broken leg, because it was a part of her beauty to me.
