Puppy in a Polka-dot Dress

#DoodlewashJanuary2025 prompt: Polka Dots.

January 22 is National Polka Dot Day.

Did you know the first sewing machine was invented in 1790, and that allowed the creation of symmetrical circles on fabric - hence polka dots? And why ‘polka’. There was a polka dance craze in the 1840s, and the name was given to many things to cash in on the popularity.

I was going to do a grumpy dog but while grumpy cats look cute, grumpy dogs just look like they're going to bite you!
