Title: Angie is making bow socks
Post by: Parnell on June 12, 2014, 12:07:44 am
She's been nocking 'em out.  Simple fleece ones, but this is the one she's been wanting to make in her head and is already starting to improve on this.  She made it yesterday and it has an inner and outer layer of heavy fabric with a batting, padded layer in between.  It's for my 52" Osage shorty that I've cleaned up and given a better tiller.

Enjoy!

Love to support local craftswomen ;D I need three. Glad she is feeling better, and when I get home from work the boots and shirt are the first things to come off. :)

Hahaha, how do you keep the flakes out of your belly button when your makin points? Nice sleeve! For the more deserving bows ,I  double up on the material as well. Had some leftover blue velvet from a job( yes, my work does sometimes involve velvet ;D) that really dresses me up and keeps them safe.
   The guys like to tease a bit when I get the sewing machine out on bow making night. ........ So no nice bow sock for them  :'( >:D >:D

You extreme southerners have some odd priorities....socks for the bow, but no socks for your feet!  No wonder you can't take real weather!   >:D

That is quite the upscale and fashionable bow sock!  Nice work, Angie!

Just what kind of real weather are we talking about. If it's snow we are like Paleo man, smart enough to head South. Girls on the beach in Bikinis are a lot nicer to look at then bundled up corn fed ladies. Feel free to come down for the next Hurricane Party. ;D

I lived in El Lay and my first trip to the beach was a rude wake up call.  Who knew that when they film movies at the beach they kick off most of the real people.  In reality those corn fed ones flock to the sand and water and they ain't so bundled up anymore!!!

Eddie, call me when your state has some topographical lines added to their maps!  8)
