The Original


When I sat down to draw a logo for my blog, I knew exactly who would be the muse for Fabric Mutt: my sister's beloved toy miniature dachshund, Naomi. This afternoon, my sister and I had to take Naomi to the vet to be put to sleep. She was almost fifteen years old and in very bad health, yet I can still see her as a tiny puppy being rocked to sleep in my sister's arms.

Good-bye, little one. You will be so dearly missed.

  2. Oh, I'm so sorry to hear about Naomi's passing... As one who cares for an old doxie (though he's a "hybrid," meaning a doxie mix), I can imagine what a smart, loving, loyal dog Naomi no doubt was. My thoughts go out to you and your sister.

  5. So sorry...she was adorable! We had a mini dachshund for 14 years, too. I still have dreams about her sometimes - she was truly loved!
