Those of you that are facebook friends have probably seen these. I have about 20 minutes I have to wait on something and decided I would post some of these. I thought some of you might enjoy them.

My new puppy, Bonnie. She is an English Shepherd.

The body of the quilt is quilted in a Baptist fan pattern. Around the borders I put these cowboy hats because his nickname is Cowboy.

Gorgeous work Survivor!!!

My favor pic (other than the pup...ADORABLE) is the last one. Before my thumb got arthritic I used to embroider. Beautiful work. Thanks for sharing.

Ooooooohhh!!!! The puppy is soooooo adorable? She is the cutest little thing with her sweet face and big puppy paws. I would roll around on the floor with her all day long and cuddle her to death. What a total sweetie. I love you

Great handy work too. Is that the same quilt you posted a couple of month ago or is this a new project?

Love

Thanks, Ladies.

It is the same quilt but it was just the top when I posted it earlier. These are pictures of all the quilting, too.

Bonnie gets a LOT of attention. She starts out every day with me on the floor with her. She ends every day with my husband down there. In between plays with our adult dogs, Mollie the Collie and Maya the Lab mix. At the end of the day she is very tired.

My husband kept reminding everyone "she is not a lap dog." However, I now have to remind him of that. LOL

Talking of sheep dogs and collies …
Check out this commercial. It makes me chuckle whenever I see it on TV.

Are you talking about Scarlett O'Hara, Risa?

She is a print. I bought Gone With the Wind fabric and fussy cut her out. Then I did a ripple effect quilting around her to make her appear to stand out from the quilt.

Amazing work - I should think work like this would take years to complete. I love Scarlett o'Hara motive. Your family is very lucky to receive such special presents.
