why must i be...a dog in a suitcase?

i don't speak french
which is why it is slightly insane
that i subscribe
to french magazines
aside from the few french words 
incorporated into the english language
i have not a clue
if the prose is 
inspired 
or
insipid

however
the photos
and 
creativity
never fail to 
turn this
punctual taskmaster
into a 
daring daydreamer

a recent issue of marie claire idees
showed a small dog
perched in a
 darling white-washed bed
fashioned from an old valise

at a romp through an overstuffed antique store
i found this

with a
 bit of fabric
little ingenuity
and
sackful of patience
(i am a horrible seamstress)

we now have
our own darling version
(if i might say so myself)

both girls checked it out
but only one 
reigns supreme
she seems quite content
mais oui!


*i have a tutorial here with a material's list and some steps
this is not a sewing tutorial...that would be like the blind leading the blind!
