A lovely package arrived yesterday, cannot wait to add to my selection of collars that I will be taking to the Green Gallery next weekend.
Time is running out as I have had workmen in the house replacing the old pipes, so there have been floorboards up, holes drilled in walls and water all over the place. Then the washing machine broke , flooding the utility……not perfect for quiet sewing in a corner.
As usual these are top quality, pure new wools from the Scottish Border Mills. Despite being beautiful to the touch, a collar made from this fabric will prove to be extremely hard wearing

Something a little different this morning…well, it possibly couldn’t be more different.
No more collars for a couple of weeks, as I have been asked to make some paper decorations for the Green Gallery Christmas Fair, so tartan has been banished from my craft room, and all things papery, gluey and glittery have taken over the work table, and shamefully, the floor.
It’s been a while since I did anything like this, so it has taken me a considerably long time to produce these two ballroom slippers, the mess arrived pretty quickly though 😬
If you are local, please come along to the show, it will be full of beautiful paintings, and stalls selling handmade gifts.
Back to the rock face now, two slippers in two days just won’t cut it.

I am never up to speed with social media, I much prefer to be making things, but I have just been sent another photo .
This is the very handsome Albert, who is sporting one of my most popular tartans, Bruce of Kinnaird. He is a big lad, so needed a larger collar than my stock ones, but that is never a problem.
Thank you for sitting so well for the camera , such a good boy.❤️

I know it may be too early for Christmas for some, but one customer was thinking ahead when they ordered these two matching collars for their dogs.
If you are thinking of treating your furry friends to a lovely new collar, then now is the time to think about it. All my collars are handmade so I like to have plenty of time to prepare and make sure that every one is perfect.
Ordering is easy, just head over to my page, send me a PM, and I will give you all the information you need.

Sometimes I look at a fabric, especially a tweed, and imagine a Gentleman striding across the moorland with his gun dog by his side. These are those fabrics.
You don’t need a large estate, or a gun dog of course, any pooch would look classy sporting one of these.

The most popular choices for collars are the red ones, what dog wouldn’t look cute in a red tartan collar? When I started, Royal Stewart was my first purchase.
Now, I buy lengths of ones that I think might be popular, or ones that I just plain love (so far, these have NOT been so enticing, I must have weird taste 😬)
Sometimes, I am asked for a particular tartan, and I am willing to stock it if I think others may like it.
Now, I feel I can say this, some tartans can be a wee bit ‘samey’, and, dare I say it, boring. I am a Ferguson by birth, and much as I have a kilt, it is not inspiring. On a display of tartan collars, only Fergusons might want it.
so it is not financially viable for me to stock any.
However, if you would like a particular tartan and you can rally up your friends or family to be able to order a collar, or lead, in the tartan you want, I would most certainly be willing to accommodate you.
Here are some lovely pooches from a family of McQueens doing just that thing.

Yet another beautiful dog with a new collar. This time, here is Jack, looking very handsome in Edinburgh Tartan. As a Glaswegian, it pains me to say it is a beauty. 😂 It is really shown off by a black coat.

I make ribbon collars too. These are ribbons specially made for dog collars, so even though we imagine that they might spoil in no time at all, they are hardy and resilient like all the others.
Here is Heidi wearing her skull collar (she has one in the pink colourway too) so despite the butter-wouldn’t-melt expression, I reckon this little girl must be a rock chick at heart. And the eyelashes 😍

Although the three standard sizes of collar I make will suit most dogs, I can make any size if required, and this is a extra large one made today in one of my favourite tartans, Flower of Scotland. The colours are really beautiful in real life, much brighter than when viewed on screen or paper.
Hopefully I will be sent a photo of it being worn .
