If you ask me, I'll tell you I don't have time to sneeze. I've lost track of all the UFOs in my studio, and even with giving up cooking and cleaning I wish I had 28 hours in a day.

So naturally, I took the time to make Madison a tuxedo! With tails. (Now he has three tails.)

Before you think I'm too clever, I took the pattern off an existing doggie-tux that belongs to Charley, a handsome black Labrador retriever who lives with my friend JoAnne. Charley said I could borrow it. Madison wore Charley’s tux when the Flint Area Recreational Tap-Dancing Society ushered at the dance recital. Here’s Madison with my mom at the back of the auditorium before we let in the audience.

Is he not just the cat’s meow?

No pattern available. I’ve already forgotten how I did it.
