Dog blocks

Last Saturday I found a few goodies at a garage sale up the road from our apartment. I don't think this lady had done a thorough clean-out since at least the 1950s! One item I picked up was this 1977 McCall's embroidery transfer book.


There are a lot of cute motifs inside -- one of my favorites being this dog stacking blocks, which quickly went on to a plain white onesie:



Sweet!

Wonderful! (I was going to say "Adorable!" and then "So cute!", but those were already taken.) ;)

So sweet! I embroidered onesies for my baby when he was, well, a baby! They were so sweet. I didn't have a dog stacking blocks, though--and I wish I had! It's perfect!

Oooh! Just too cute!

Are you familiar with Mary Jane Butter? She has a book with all sorts of "home-makey" things and even some vintage embroidery ideas that you reminded me of.

Glad to hear you're doing well! ;)
