Grooming the Poodle Posse

This weekend marks the start of summer, maybe not officially but Memorial Day weekend means grilling, beaching, and taking out those white shoes you stashed away during the winter. In my world of sewing patterns and fabric, Memorial Day weekend doesn’t mean eating a burger out by the pool. It means my dog groomer went on vacation and might be gone for six, count them, six weeks. That also means leaving my redneck, digging in the dirt, looking for frog poodles still need haircuts and baths. After being attacked by blood thirsty fleas, having poodle wool up my nose, and re-cleaning the bathroom, they are somewhat presentable. Not as good as Miss Shirley (she is truly gifted with clippers) but at least there are no more mats, a few less fleas (where’s the Advantage?), and one less tick (EWWWW!) to attack the posse….that is until they go frogging again.

Don’t forget to check out the Judaic fabrics listed. There’s new ones. Lots more patterns for sewing, knitting, and crochet, too.

You could crochet or knit a blanket while at the pool. Pick out an easy one and knock it out over a weekend. Fun and a wonderful sense of accomplishment.

 

Oh, and here’s an idea for Father’s Day…..a vintage fishing lure key chain from MetalWoodsnWater.

Have a great weekend and don’t forget your sunscreen!
