congratulations on your show results. and love your 'bunny sling'

Ya know, @goatgurl has a point there about the sling... ever considered marketing that? Seems to me it would make the bun incredibly relaxed when you have to tote him from one point to another, especially at a show.

Thank you @animalmom and @goatgurl I have had it for several years now, I got it in 2010. I have made several of my own out of a pattern from this one and sold them but I don't remember how I did them Lol! it is a baby sling modified slightly for dogs but I modified mine slightly for rabbits. It came in handy when I was bottle feeding babies to keep 5 in it, under my sweater at a show and still be functioning at the pace needed for showing. It also beat my bra :gig

this was nice also for when I am alone and there is no room to move my carriers to the show table. I can put one in it and hoist two to three in my arms depending on the rabbit. The rabbit will sit in the sling on my back looking out and everything. Lol! Mine are very friendly and always stretching out Of it to greet people.

Been absent for a while again... just don't seem to be able to find the time lately to make it on here .... I apologize but here is a bit of what's been happening around here.

We have the lean to roofed and just waiting on pay day to get the materials to build the walls and door for it.
Goat stalls are built in the barn. My husband is amazing and surprised me with them one day.
Barn is clean for winter.
gearING up for a craft show the 14th and been cranking out as many drawings as possible for that and then I have to get prints made of them along with bake the dog treats and prepare our advertising and such.
I turned 25 on the 31st , had a double b day party for myself and my cousin on the 24th along with a friend's b day party for me later that night , buried a family member the 23rd. And last but not least we are expecting puppies! Due on thanksgiving!

I did receive word that I will have to fly to Michigan December 7th through the 13th for work as well so things are only going to get crazier before they calm down lol. Hoping for some baby bunnies in the mix of it all as well.... we shall see!
