    Red face Greyhound pattern

    Hi everybody. I'm looking for a greyhound pattern and can't find one. Does anyone have any ideas on where I can look? I tried a "google" search and it didn't have much to offer. Thanks in advance for any advice/ideas you gals (or guys) can come up with. I know quilters are very creative :-). Ellen

    Most of the links bring up blocks made with greyhound fabrics. I did find this one raffle quilt that you might be interested in seeing, although there is no pattern with it. http://www.greyhoundplacement.com/quilt-raffle.html

    Silver linings does indeed have a very cool PP greyhound
    http://www.silverliningsoriginals.com/cc/grhn1.html

    here is another

    and with applique you could pretty much turn any image you find into a quilt. You can try fusible applique which is very simple to do.

    Darcy Ashton has a book of patterns of large dogs. There is a greyhound in there, as well as several other dogs you could modify to look very greyhound-y (saluki, great dane etc). All of her patterns are applique, and she gives instruction for both fusing and needle-turn.

    I love her stuff!
