Tootsie Roll Tuesday 2020-37



TootsUncommon is an active part of this #FASHIONREVOLTION. Most of our Uncommonly Unique Pet Attire & Accessories are made from "discarded" clothing. Take for example our new line we are calling, "The Sophie Black & Golden Boiler Up!"


Meet Sophie! She is a sweet golden retriever and belongs to my mother-in-law, the head seamstress of TootsUncommon. My mother-in-law operate a clothing alterations business - Sew Unique - and is a retired teacher of family and consumer sciences; what we used to call home economics. And she certainly does her part in, "Creating a Cuter Continent One Canine at a Time!"



A little over a week ago I would have introduced Sophie as a sweet golden retriever who belongs to my father and mother-in-law; but sadly we lost Sophie's dad October 9, 2020. One of the last errands my father-in-law ran before his passing was to drop off at the post office th sweet little jacket Tootsie is wearing.




This TootsUncommon one-of-a-kind was once worn as a favorite sweatshirt by my father-in-law. Purdue sweaters, shirts, and sweatshirts were my father-in-laws favorite way to keep warm; while showing his Boiler Pride. He had three degrees from Purdue - now that's impressive! In his honor we are delighted to introduce it in its repurposed form as the Sophie Black & Golden Boiler Up! To your warmth once more we gather; Boiler Up hear our praise; Wear the Sophie Black & Golden, Upcycled to Boiler You Up!
