Couture by Sophie’s
The Abigail

I love to design things for Sophie! As it turns out, other people love the designs, too, thank goodness! That’s how Couture by Sophie was born. This is a shot I took of the little girl, modeling her newest coat, The Abigail, in front of F.I.T.

This week’s 52 Snapshots of Life Photo Challenge is about creating. I saw this fabric when I was shopping for a client at Mood in the Garment Center, and loved it. I immediately saw it as a dog coat. But I didn’t buy it then; I took a swatch, found a matching burgundy satin lining, took a swatch of that, and the same with the faux fur collar.

The more I looked at them at home, the more I wanted to make this coat. So, back I went and bought everything. It was the first coat I made that had complete coverage of the neck and chest and the first coat where I used velcro. I used to have a thing about velcro, but have since learned better! 🙂

Hope you’ll join me and lots of others participating in the #52Snapshots challenge! It’s fun, helps hone your photography skills and you connect with some great pet bloggers. But, you don’t have to be a pet blogger to do this.

Just post your own photo, following that week’s theme on your social networks, with the hashtag #52Snapshots, so we can all connect. If you are a blogger, this is also a BlogHop, so join up below!  Here’s the schedule of themes:
