  • yep, they're appliqued not painted on. the first time i wore the jet shirt everyone thought it was painted.

  • Agile, those are really wonderful. The one of Jet is especially good.

  • BDawg,

    I had to order the one that you had that said my Basenji is cuter than your kid! Too cute!

    I also bought a Puggle one that said "It wasn't me!!! The Puggle farted. Seriously." Our Puggle passes gas sometimes and DH and I blame each other. I know, gross but kind of funny. This will make a great around the house shirt! LOL!

  • Agile,

    Those are beautiful, how long does it take you to make one? You should consider selling them, I bet you would have a lot of buyers here.

  • Thanks. I think I'd have to charge $40+/dog or so for just the pannel to make it worth doing. I've done some fleece stuff and that goes quicker. The Jet shirt took longer - all those little tan pieces. Well, tri's are tri-ing. I think we all know that. I did raw edge applique on all the shirts and the stitching is time consuming. A simple solid colored silhouette would be easier and much quicker, but not nearly as nice or personalized. The eyes and noses are done out of ultrasuade and of course the markings are matched to my dogs. (The first r/w one is done of my very first basenji. So, I still need to do a Zest Tee shirt.)

    The colors on the first pic, are not really true. The shirt is a pale yellow and the background is more purple. That one and Jet's are done with cotton and the one of Digital is done with suede-like upholstry fabric. I really like how that one did out, but wasn't sure how it would wear/wash. (As it turns out, it does great, but i did have to re-apply the stripes.)

    Here's a scarf I did for a competition last year. (I got second place, which was really exciting because I don't really think of myself as a sewer.) And yes, I matched the markings, so that really is Jet in a Santa hat and Diggie opening his present. The bow on the present is yarn and dangles freely.

  • 40 plus dollars for that level of detail and hand work is not unreasonable! Your work is beautiful.

    That is the funniest thing EVER!!! :D :D :D

    I agree it is beautiful, I love the scarf!

  • Thanks guys. If you're interested in a pannel or a scarf, pm me.

    I used Wisdom Panel for my assumed Basenji mix. It showed no basenji at all. My boy is 32 lbs and short hair. His DNA says he is 25% American Eskimo 12.5% Boston Terrier 12.5% Chow Chow 12.5% German Shepherd 12.5% Miniature Schnauzer 25% Breed Group-Sporting, Herding, Hound, Terrier. Having owned basenjis all my life I would say my boy has basenji in him by his personality and behavior regardless of what his dna says!!

    She is really cute though I don't see Basenji. Like Shirley said, only a DNA can tell you much for certain.
