So glad I found the brown dog print. I am making this quilt for my adult son and he did not want any flowers...I am hoping to start and finish this weekend. Then I will do my other son's quilt. Different patterns but all dog...once done I will use the left overs to make my husbands quilt but may leave out the dog bones as we do not have a dog...but then again we do babysit the dogs.

I finished sewing three of the strips. I am thinking of having it quilted by a long arm since I am just doing all the squares the same size. I am giving this to my oldest son for Christmas, so really want it to look nice so that he will treasure it....I am going to call around during the week to see what they are charging in my area. If the price is right I will have it done. If its a lot I will try doing stitch in a ditch.

Heres a tip...I keep forgetting which end is the top...here is a tip that you may know..I cannot believe I did not think of it earlier....I place a safety pin on the top square...now I know which block not to sew and also how to lay it back down once sewn....so much easier...and no fear of sewing the wrong end.
