One Monthly Goal…It is truly a miracle

I am not sure how I managed to finish my One Monthly Goal, but I did.  This is the quilt WaterMark_2018-04-21-19-28-17top given to me by Nanette.  I love it.  I quilted dog bones, free-handed it.  That was a bit scary, but it came out all right.  I used a festive multi-watermark_2018-04-21-19-26-10.jpgcolor thread.  I love multi-color threads.  I don’t know why.  I am weird.

So, the back, come crazy dog fabric.  I had a friend give me whole bolt of this stuff.  It is sort of odd, not exactly fleece and not exactly flannel.  Just weird, but perfect for my dog quilt.  Yes, this is my dog quilt.  I have already used it while lounging on the couch.  Warm and cozy and extra special since the top was made by an extra special friend.  I have plan to make another quilt like this and donate to a dog rescue so they can hopefully raise some money.

Seems that family is on the mend.  Kev is getting better and my sister’s prognosis no longer seems as bleak as it once was.  A long way to go, but there is light.

Happy Sewing

Happy Quilting

    The quilt is so dog-gone cute! Your dog bone quilting looks great. And I love your idea of making one to donate.

  5. The dog quilt it just way too cute for words! I am proud of you for quilting the dog bones, you are making real progress on your FMQ! I hope things continue to get better for your loved ones! Sometimes a creative outlet like quilting helps keep us calm in the midst of a storm, it sounds like this is true for you. I hope you have a nice weekend, even though we are expecting rain, that means more time for quilting!
