    Nuttybabe; They are so sweet. Like the way you put bows in their ears. :0)

    i had problems with my dogs to begin with aswell. i think it was the way the nose was folded i couldnt quiet get it.

    It's the neck bit that's causing the problem, just can't get it right. I expect it will all fall together if I keep working on it....or just might fall!!

    Do you have to machine sew them or can you hand sew them? I'm a beginner and my machines a really basic one with only one stitching option.
