Any GSD Fans?

Post by montecarlogirl87 »

I made this latch-hook years and years ago, it's been rolled up in a corner of my room ever since...would anyone like it? for free :) all I ask is a few bucks for shipping, gotta find a box it fits in

the edges are unfinished...it's big too, I should have measured it when I had it out...maybe 4ft high?

I am not a fan of latch-hook, but that is really stunning. Awesome, awesome job. A friend of mine has her own 501.c3 rescue...let me see if she'd be interested in it for a fundraiser.

WELL DONE.

I can't take full credit, it was a printed design, I just followed the gridwork...but I'd be happy to donate it for fundraising purposes :)

Tell us about yourself: DS and Mal foster newly approved aug'12 by NADSR and ABMCR. high-functioning Autistic in nyc/hamptons in my 60's. Rescued the smartest dog i had ever seen off nyc street in 2000. Tracedog's intelligence exceeded by multiples my judgement that day. My first [and only as of 10/2012] dog turned out to be a DS, perhaps with a touch of something else, but attention to detail, behavioral traits, and physical habits, movement, and skill identical to DS. But MUCH more intellectual ability. supremely confident in all settings, fearless, very outgoing and social with people and friendly with dogs. Seldom apart in over 12 years, Trace Dog was the most important relationship of my adult life; he was my partner. He died july17,2012. i am dying without him. www.youtube.com/tracesobaka www.dogster.com/dogs/637612

it is rather spectacular.
i would hang it in my house - especially hoping the dogs would recognize a kindred spirit.

Mmmmm, no, feel free to take full credit. A vet used to give me their latch-hook pieces for fundraising raffles...and...uh...I had to start dropping the price of raffles to a buck. People will give a buck--it's just spare change in their pockets--but many wouldn't fill out the raffle tickets. They didn't want his rugs.

So...the credit is all yours. :D

lol yeah, latch-hook isn't exactly the coolest thing...I did this when I was in middle school? maybe? I can't really remember, but there's no point in it sitting in the corner of my room taking up space :lol:

I hope you didn't misunderstand my post....The public didn't want HIS rugs. You did a stellar job, and especially so if done at a young age.
