Here is my newest design. I have Roxy and Sally modeling for you today. I have made one for my new Grandpuppy Lucy and one for my webpage. This outfit is reversible so you get two outfits in one.
First Pics are Roxy

Thank You Lee Ann. I think Sally looks good in Red too. And I like that it's reversible, half as much packing to take them places.

Thanks Lori. Red is one of my favorite colors and it really stands out against Sally's coloring.

Oh yeah....red looks great with the fawns. Don't you love the reverables. I just wish I can figure out a way to make them a harness style without the d ring. I know we could add a button hole for a harness leash, but I have to figure out how to do it without it. Great...something else to loose sleep over tonight rofl!!!

That is stunning. Both girls look wonderful. Roxy looks so sure of herself in those pictures and Sally looks like a princess.

Meredith...it is very easy. As long as it is lined it is basically reversible. And using the tulle you don't have issues with the skirt fabric being on the wrong side when flip over. My problem is I like to use the d rings for harnesses and I don't want them touching the back of the dog when it is reversed, but it is great for dressing up without the d ring. Now you can add the buttonhole on it for a harness/leash, then your good to go :)

Lori

Wow! Wait but what about the velcro on the front and belly to keep it together? I'm confused how that works? It's a good thing I've never attempted anything reversible- I'm a little too incompetent to attempt that yet! :D

It doesn't matter. It just laps the opposite dierection is all. Look at one of your outfits and check it out :)

Lori, I think I have figured out the harness D-ring problem on reversible outfits. I am making another reversible and I will try it on this one.

Wow that's beautiful! How do you make it reversible?! that's so cool!Thanks. I was trying to come up with something different.

That is stunning. Both girls look wonderful. Roxy looks so sure of herself in those pictures and Sally looks like a princess.
Roxy is very sure of herself. She is the alpha dog of the brood, and Sally is just too cute for her own good. That little face gets her out of being bad sometimes.

Yes, Twyla, what are you doing??Before all is said and done, Bianca's going to have a whole new wardrobe...and have YOU to thank!! First the daisy dress, then the pansy fringe...the sunflower dress(which I'm seriously contemplating)...and now the reversable tutu!! EEKKK! Bianca will disown me!

DUH!!! lol i feel so stupid- I've NEVER tried it! I was always like wow I with I could have something reversible!!!! I wonder how they DO that?! lol! The reversible things I've seen with the D-ring have the D-ring at the edge of the vest :)

:::Fumbling for glasses. Darn, can't find them. Guess I won't be reading "fine" print today. I can see that she sympathizes with my shopping spree needing to be over. She's so kind, and caring:::


Good morning Twyla, excuse all of that, I was just talkin to myself. It's so comforting to know that you understand. :funny: :wink:

The Tutu is BEAUTIFUL! I'd like to see it in pink, or blue as well. :)

What do you guys think about this material made into a Tutu? It's 100% Cotton. I think it's so dainty, and girly.

I can make them in any color you would like. I have lots of fabric choices on the Sun Pups Webpage. If you don't see something there that you like, let me know and I will get the colors you are looking for.

Yes, Twyla, what are you doing??Before all is said and done, Bianca's going to have a whole new wardrobe...and have YOU to thank!! First the daisy dress, then the pansy fringe...the sunflower dress(which I'm seriously contemplating)...and now the reversable tutu!! EEKKK! Bianca will disown me!Bianca is so stylish in all her outfits. She is going to get so comfortable in her clothes, she won't want to go out naked.

oh cool great idea on the reversible stuff! the pups look so pretty in their tutus :) Thanks Maiko.

DUH!!! lol i feel so stupid- I've NEVER tried it! I was always like wow I with I could have something reversible!!!! I wonder how they DO that?! lol! The reversible things I've seen with the D-ring have the D-ring at the edge of the vest :) That's exactly what I was thinking of doing with the next one for the D-ring.

Do I feel a Twyla Tutu Collage coming on??? :lol: Oh, great idea Teresa. I'm up for it.

I am making one in that Pink Retro print right now. I should have it finished tomorrow night and will post pictures then. I have a couple more ideas in the works.

Yeah...I have seen them like that but I think it puts more stress near the neck where you really don't want it. I like it further down. I have one idea but haven't tried it yet.

I love that pink fabric. Will you make it up with a pink skirt or a white skirt?
Just adorable with the froofy skirts.

You're very welcome Twyla! :)

I think that fabric just rings, Tutu. It has a prissy feel, dainty, and very feminine. I think some shades of pink, with some white in the tulle skirting would be nice. Also maybe a pretty chiffon ribbon and bow at the waist where the fabric, and tulle meet.

The pink fabric on this thread is some fabric Teresa has. I don't have any of that material. I have several other fabrics though.

I'm off to the fabric store for some girly material. Mac has been doing some upgrades so I haven't been able to add the new items to my webpage but they should be up soon. You can always PM me here if you need anything that is not on the webpage yet. I'm excited to see what I can find and hopefully they have the tulle that matches.

YIPPEEE! Can't wait to see what you pick out! I know it'll be good!
I tried to put a comment on your webstie the other day Twyla and it wouldn't allow me to. Is that because of the updating?

Yes, that should have been due to the upgrading, sorry for the inconvience. With Mac's new Iphone they have had to update the entire system to sync everything to their latest "toy". My daughter is the computer expert. I will ask her about it and make sure that is all it is.

That's alright. I'll check back with you. Faye wrote some very nice comments on there for you. Quite deserving, I'd say!

Mac is aware of the problem and they are working around the clock to fix it. My daughter said you could try again in a few days or you could send the comments to her through the mac email on the webpage and she will post it as soon as Mac is up again.

I looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooove the pink material! That pink material is cute. I'm sure I will find something that will be just the right shades and design of pink too.

I can't wait to see the new fabrics you get! Sheesh, between you, Kelly and Jane I'm going to go BARRROOOKKKKKKEEEE buying things from all you for my baby!!! I can deal with that. :funny: By the time December gets here you are going to be such the seamstress that your new Chi won't have enough awake time to wear/use everything you have for her. You will just have to get a couple more babies.

How Beautiful!! I love the reversible option and they look just darling in them. Thanks, I really like the reversible option too. The embellishments have to be flat for the reversible to work correctly, but there are so many options available.

Thank you Shon. Looking over all the outfits I have made I think I am partial to browns too. I am trying to break out of that mold and get some more color in my Sun Pups line. Everything I make can be made exactly as you see it or you can choose from other fabrics that I have. I have a feeling there is going to be a girl in your future...

I will post pics of my beautiful Grandpuppy. I just saw her tonight but forgot the tutu. :(
Bianca would look good in blue. I am making a purple and pink one right now that I just love love love the print. I will post it when I finish it.
