I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Denim and Fleece Dog Coat

Still belly deep in snow here! But Karma is toasty warm in her new handmade, recycled denim coat!


Following the directions given at compulsive craftiness I was able to make this cozy denim and fleece coat for Karma. Check out the pattern through this link for detailed instructions.

But here's what I did.

I patchworked some recycled denim for the outer layer. 


Then lined it with plush baby blue fleece and cut off the excess


and sewed on some velcro closures.


It was the first time I'd ever sewn a collar to a garment...not bad! The instructions made it easy!


I made a strap across the front using the waistband from a pair of jeans including the brass button closure.

Perfect for walks around the block!
