I'm sure you are tired of dog posts by now but I have to say a few more thank yous this week as somehow this lovely lot of dog themed fabric found its way into my stash!
While commenting on polaroid blocks made for Helen in our Modern
Irish Bee by Angela, I admired this doggy fabric and Angela gifted me
some in the post - thank you so much -I love the generosity of quilting
peeps!
My
generous cousin we visited in Chicago, to celebrate her wedding, also
gifted me dog fabric. As soon as I saw this I knew it was the range
Best in Show. I have been eyeing this up for ages!
Looking for some backing fabric to finish 2 thank you cushions I found this range in the Limerick Quilt shop and I couldn't resist adding to the growing haul of dog related fabrics!
Last week, during our October meeting of the Irish Patchwork Society I gave a talk on modern quilting and was given these scottie dogs from the shop on the night, Seams So Simple as a thank you from the branch. Don't they know me well!
I was a bit nervous giving the talk as some of our members are really experienced quilters and I'm quilting just about 4 years now.
We have members of all ages and some prefer traditional, some art quilting and even though modern isn't to everyone's taste (I was told by one lady its not for her though my display was lovely), they all listened attentively. I felt like I was talking for ages and ages but they were all really great.
I brought almost all the makes I had not given away as presents to use as examples, some finishes and lots of WIP's. I really need to get a move on and finish up some stuff!
Thank you ladies for the Scottie dog fabric, I will put it to very good use!
