Hi all,I love looking at everyones things that they make on here and tryed my hand at making a new carrier for bambi and turned an old baby dress into a dress for her..I had to make it smaller and put velcro on it for the "doing up" bit.
the carrier is ok but next time I would make it a bit deeper I think,although it does hav a clip to attach to her collar.
hope you all like them

I am in the process of making one for my bike, and i will certainly show it off to you guys when i finish it. It will be a week or so, though, cause I have bedsack orders to fill. It won't be from scratch, either, i have a (bell brand square) basket already and will just be sewing a cover with some pockets to make it more comfy for my zo-zo.

it has a bracket to hold it on the handlebars. i made the pattern for it a couple years ago for my first chi, peanut, but he was never healthy enough to go, so i stopped making it. now it will just be a matter of finishing it. The new bell baskets are oval and are not as roomy, so if you can get your hands on an old one, i would buy it if you want a comfy easy to cover basket. it looks deeper too. i would be happy to advise you if you like mine when it is finished.

I made a shirt out of a preemie outfit today for Cubbie. I took forever, so I think shopping sales might be better. LOL But here it the back. I will post the front next. I haven't figured out how to put multiple pictures from my album here up at once.
