Weiner Dog is in the mail!!! He’s heading for my niece’s home, along with a wee weiner dog stuffie. My niece and her husband are expecting their first baby!

I don’t know about you…. but I can’t wait for SPRING! I found these pretty fat quarters last time I went fabric shopping. Perfect for 3 friends! Made this pouch one day because I wanted to use the rainbow scrap from my Noah’s Ark quilt. It’s very deeeep! Perfect for 1 more friend! I’m always […]

The snow is here, so this quilt top gets a late night indoor photo shoot! Oh SNOW!!! ❄️ These little kittens have lost their mittens! This is Cats in Hats.

The snow is here now, but these photos were taken late in the fall! Oh SNOW!!! ❄️ This is Cats in Boxes. These cute little cats are doing what cats do. If I fits…. I sits! I had enough of this print remaining after using it to back the Dog Daze quilt I shared last. […]
The Dog Days of Summer are long gone, as we are full on into dall here now. This quilt is called Dog Daze and features four different styles of dogs. Their faces are basically the same, but their ears and neck lengths vary. The front fabrics are all neutrals – except for the tongues – […]
