i have a viszla friend that does that to me! i was his puppy nanny and he and monkey grew up together. grann has a great dane, heidi, and a rotty, gus. they are just darling!
|
I am still working on mine, but it's not turning out the way I wanted it too. Whoever gets it, please be kind. lol.....
|
Heidi, the Great Dane is a lap dog, will sit on your lap if given the chance. She is 10 years old, but thinks she is still 3. Gus the rottie is a mix, is 8 years old and has 2 bionic knees, this is the first winter in 3 years that he could run free in the fenced in back yard. He is so happy with life right now that he forgot to acknowledge that he is 8.
Am loving the wallhangings so far. We need more pics. |
Hi......should I post a picture of my finished wall hanging before I send it off or should I leave it as a surprise....???

that is proof. soft sweet spring colors Junebillie. is that hand appliqued? I am sure its going to be gorgeous. Mine is all pastels also in pinks, yellows, purples.. no picks but it is finished waiting to fly to a new home.
|
Finished the binding on mine yesterday. Ready to ship as soon as I get a name. No pictures posted. Haven't been able to get camera out to take pictures of my pretties. (some pictures on camera are of Mom when we viewed her before her cremation) Soon - maybe DH will help me separate them.

morning everyone! just popping in to say hello! I was at a fabric shop the other day Bearly Quilting in Sonora and they had this wall hanging kit. Actually a group of them.. but this caught my eye. It was the side profile of a bunny. fusible applique. like a standing chocolate bunny side profile. He had a egg in his hand. That was it some pretty striped pastel going all around it and I was so close to buying it but thought oh heck you can make it simple enough bunny. patterns like free on the net. But I have to say it was so cute. would be a grand wall hanging for easter and might be next on the wall hanging list for me. I couldnt justify 22.00 for a 12 W x 18 long piece of fabric lol. I think I also need to make a cactus wall hanging. the idea just came to me and its perfect for a western or cinco de mayo wall hanging. with some chili peppers and maybe a pot at the base like those old fifties tablecloths have.. yup that would be cool. and I havent even had my coffee yet its still brewing!

Here's a little hint of what I made[ATTACH=CONFIG]397262[/ATTACH]It is done and just about ready to mail, have to sew on a label
|
well just 3 more days til I send out the addresses!! I'll send them out on the 26th so you have a couple of days to get yours in the mail. I can't wait to see all of the wall hangings!!!!
If the maker can't post I hope those who recieve will post a pic for us to see |
Elisabrat I am sure yours is beautiful. Mine is just a teaser, because it is not the one I am sending. Some of those fabrics are in the one I am sending, but there are some others too, but similar. I have been using that one along with the other one to practice, but not sure it will be any better. oh well. I am still learning. lol....The other teaser I seen is very pretty, and I am also looking forward to seeing all of the wall hangings that will be shown. Have fun everyone. Happy sewing!!!

Ok....have taken a picture....am hoping who ever gets it likes it......as I made it mainly in February....I thought of spring and hearts.......the old romantic that I am !!
I have had such fun making it, lots of wonky seams but I'm hoping it's not going to the quilt inspector........I have called it at the heart of the matter......and I am hoping who ever gets it sees why !! Sadly will count myself out of the 3rd swop as my first grandchild is due in May and my daughter wants patchwork quilts.....It will all be very neutral and as soon as it is born I will adding loads of blue or pink accessories....so a busy few months ahead. I'll try and do the 5th one. Thanks Rhonda for organising.....Off to start my label now. |
roO-- that's lovely ! and it totally matches my colors and decor! are you listening, rhonda???
|
Little RoO that is so pretty. I love the heart too. Pretty colors.
|
Little RoO also congratulations on becoming a grandma. Due in the month of my birthday. Mine is the 16th.
|
Still working on mine. Have more quilting to do then the binding. I am hand quilting it and I judged the timing off. We have two late nights to work this week on top of it. I should be in the mail by the weekend.
|

Nancia, they ALL match your colors and decor! LOL You can't have ALL of them....you only get one. |
The baby is due on the 21st but my thoughts are it might be early....my daughter is tiny....just five feet tall and a good puff of wind would normally blow her over. Her bump is big and the baby is just the right size for the weeks.....but I'm not sure she will go another twelve weeks without popping! ....what is the betting that I am wrong and it ends up being a June baby?
Talking birth dates.....we have two daughters and a couple of years ago one of them happened to comment that did WE realise that they are born exactly 9 months after my husband and I have birthdays...literally within days (birthday 21st July daughter born 20th April birthday 28th October daughter born 11th August 2 weeks late and induced !!!!.....not a lot we could say really! |

My dd was born 2 days after my birthday. her second child was born 3 days after her dad's(my dH) birthday. My son's one granddaughter was born 3 days after his birthday.
the funnniest for me is - twins run every third generation in my dad's family. so when my DiL and DD wer both pregnant at the same time I told htem they could have twins. they both decided they couldn't have twins as things in both their lives were busy and hectic enough. So they "passed" it down to my youngest son to be the one to have twins some day. He wasnt' even dating let alone married. 5 yrs later his wife had twin boys!! LOL |
