Everyday I brows the freebies and wonder what I would do with a particular design. I save it anyway because I never know what my grandchildren will want on their birthday shirts. Such was the case with these toy soldiers. Then grandson #9 asked for a shirt based on the movie Max the War dog. He asked me to put a German shepherd in the front and a war in the back. Immediately I knew how I would make the war. I do not recall where I purchased the German Shepherd. I enjoy layout and editing as much as I enjoy embroidery.

Update. Grandson loved the design but wanted me to make the shirt shorter. I guess he could not wait because he decided to do it himself. The results were, well you can imagine what a not quite 6 year old can do with a pair of dull scissors. I turned the design into a zippered pencil case for him and will use the neck to add an extension to make a bib for his baby brother. And yes, I did make him another shirt with Max the War Dog.

You've done well with this -and it was a great movie, too!

This is superb. He is going to love this.

Oh my, he is going to love it. You have done an excellent job.

I think you did it!

Very nicely arranged. I think of collecting freebies as building a library for resourcing later. Every so often, I already have exactly what I think I remember downloading! So many nice cats, dogs, flowers...

Great stitch out, your grandson will love it i am sure. Sandra.

Excellent job this will bring forth big smiles hugs
