Greyhound sewing again. The Tie/Pocket Square/Cufflinks sets cost only $4 from a clearance store I visit. I've added a greyhound from a recent Buystitch freebie, and they'll go on a Silent Auction for fundraising.Jacket is for a fellow Greyhound Foster Carer

The greyhounds as well as the humans on here are all terrific company -or 'greyt' as those obsessed with the breed would say :)

Thanks to all for your nice comments. The ties were very easy to embroider on, for anyone who's not tried it. Very easy to open up at the lower back to flatten out onto the hooped stabiliser, then close up again after embroidering.

Dear Marianne, these are lovely and God bless you for doing this wonderful act for the livelihood of Greyhounds. I think I told you when I met with you that my dear friend Sue does this for Sharpeis. Love Chris P.S. Great job on the ties & cufflinks.

Thanks Chris, the animals need all the help they can get, I think.

Thanks and I do hope lots of funds are raised too, though the fun part is making stuff available for those who've adopted and become totally obsessed with greyhounds!

Our neighbors when we lived in South Florida adopted a greyhound from when they get too old to race. That's when I first learned about greyhound dog racing.

greysewist by greysewist 24 Oct 2011

A lot don't ever race, even, and what a waste if they don't get to become pets. They generally make really good ones, being so quiet.

well done, I bet the jacket will be a hit.
Love the ties, great colour choice. They're bound to be a hit.

greysewist by greysewist 23 Oct 2011

Thanks Arel. I think I picked up a real bargain with those tie sets. They're so well presented with the matching fabric on the box lid and also a pocket square hiding under the tie.
