Default Christmas gift for new step-granddaughter
I am so pleased! I decided I wanted to make something for her even though I haven't crafted in a while. Just no time! I found a free pattern online for a crocheted hound dog pillow with big floppy ears, perfect for Syd cuz she LOVES dogs (she's 4). Dave has been telling me how nice I'm doing and that she's going to love it. It's nice to hear, but he loves me and gonna tell me that anyway

Thanksgiving my daughter and son-in-law came for dinner and I wasn't going to show them, but Dave had to tell them and of course they insisted on seeing what I have done. They both LOVED it!!! SIL went on and on about it!! I am so happy and now can't wait to finish it and see her face on Christmas!!

I can't copy & paste on this laptop but it was a free crochet pattern at the coats & clark website. It's called the 'TLC Amore Hound Pillow' and it is ADORABLE!!!
Just thought I'd share incase someone else knows someone that might enjoy it.

Sounds like you picked something that the child will adore and is based on her likes.
Great job on the pick!

Lady V, isn't he great!?!? I'm almost finished, just one foot and stuffing him left to do. I'm gonna make up a tail, even thought the pattern dosen't call for making one.

Thanks for posting the link
