I dug this pattern out today from my collection of two patterns.
This ca. 1966 pattern has sentimental value, as I have made it several times. It belonged to my mother, who also made several of the dogs, and at least one of the mouse.
My friend is having a boy, and I thought I would make a soft doggie for her sweet baby. I found the flannel at JoAnn's and had the rest of the supplies at home - soft fuzzy fabric to line the ears, buttons for the eyes, scraps for the nose and the "bags" of the hound-dog eyes, and a piece of satin ribbon for a collar.
He found a home in a $1 basket from Dollar Tree with a couple of smallish baby toys and of tissue. I tucked in a sweet card, too. I hope she loves her baby's new puppy dog! It was a labor of love and a sweet way to spend an hour or two on a quiet afternoon.
