Weiner Dog
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! And have already been waiting a loooooong time. The quilting is my usual organic wavy lines from edge to edge, using a variegated blue on top […]
Cozy Dogs
This quilt is my second last finish for the year. This is Cozy Dogs, featuring dogs lounging on comfy chairs. My chairs feature festive forest birds of winter. I chose dog fabrics from my neutral scrap buckets. My favourite of all the poses is this one with his paw hanging down. For the backing I […]
Dog Daze
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 – […]
Pups in Cups
Pups in Cups is a finished baby quilt! After sharing my Kittens in Cups, I immediately had quite a few requests for Puppies. Working with the same dimensions, I did my best to create dogs in two poses, just like the cats. It was fun choosing fabrics from my scraps baskets to make all the […]
Scottie Dogs
Scottie Dogs is a finished quilt! I simply adore the curious expressions on these little Scottie Dogs! And the two meeting nose to nose are my absolute favourites! When recently hunting for a matching set of dark and light prints to make these perky pups, I was not disappointed! These dotty prints make me think […]
Dog House
Welcome summer!!! And Happy Canada Day, eh!!! This quilt features a house full of dogs. One is really enough… These dogs each have a ball or a bone. How much is that doggy in the window? The pattern has two dog poses: sitting or standing, one in each window and one on the doorstep. I […]
Dogs Dogs Dogs
This quilt is one of three recent finishes in a similar style. This Dogs Dogs Dogs design is great for digging into your fabric scraps. One black dog is my feature dog and the binding is this black and grey honeycomb print. The backing has psychedelic dogs and rainbows, but needed a little length added. […]
Handsome Hounds
Can you feel it in the air? Feels like the dog days of summer are here. Had a wonderful weekend with family. And got right back to work on Monday, finishing up loose ends. Thankfully, none of my hounds were loose. These Handsome Hounds wall hangings were made using my test blocks. Each finished 17” […]
Whole Lotta Quilting Goin’ On
In my last post I had just added two dog quilts to the unquilted pile. And after that, the pile got deeper! But this past week, I got a whole lotta quilting done! Then on Sunday my sister and I got together for a visit and she helped me get photos. Again… This was her […]
Perky Poodles quilt
These Perky Poodles went to the park! Once again, I was fortunate to have my sister along for some quilt photos. First we went to the park by the river, right in Mitchell. You can see this is the birthplace of Howie Morenz, “The Stratford Flash”. I recently bought this cute print with sleeping dogs. […]
