making sweater dog toys

Inspired by a recent Craftstylish post on dog toys made out of sweaters, Lynn and I decided to get crafty on Sunday. She brought over her sewing machine; I borrowed one from another friend. We hit up Goodwill for some sweaters and Mangelson’s for some fill. When we went to PetSmart for the squeakies, we were disappointed to learn that they were all sold out!  The salesgirl said they very rarely sell but that a women had just been in and bought them all. (She must be a Craftstylish reader, too!)

Off to work we went without the squeakies–and only one of us knew how to use a sewing machine. Can you guess who??

So our bones didn’t exactly look like bones when we were finished, but we had a fun afternoon chatting and crafting. In the end, Briscoe was happy to play with his new toy–and isn’t that really what it’s all about?
