Scrub a dub dub, hope you like this Corgi in a tub!

For those who like vintage, for those who like Corgi, for those who like clean, I have brought you the perfect day project! Inspired by old flour and grain sack designs, I decided to use my graphic art skills to create a combination of two of my favorite things, the Corgi and vintage design, and day dreamed up this perfect little "soap sack". Best part is, you can make one too and it is very simple, just go to this link to purchase a swatch or more of the "Corgi delight soap" design and follow the instructions in the description.

Happy crafting! And for those who complete this project don't forget to share your photos on SpoonFlower!

A new little felted Corgi friend

He is a bit late sadly, I started on him last winter around Christmas with the idea of creating a unique and adorable felted ornament, but unfortunately as with most my projects it had to get put aside for more important things. But I finally got to finish him up and am able to present him to you all! The Corgi is made all from wool, the wool used to created the usual red markings of a Corgi is extra special as it has shiny synthetic strands blended into it, that being one of my main inspirations for this project. I used some shiny gold ribbon to create a harness and bow in one piece, sewing in a string so he can be hung as a Christmas decoration!
