I finally finished the top. Tomorrow when the thunder boomers stop and I can finally get my sweet Junie girl out of my lap and from under my pillow and sweather... I want to put maybe three scatter embroidered butterflys on it. I also have a little fairy that's so cute. Since the top has many various designs and fortunately all small, I think jsut a touch of fantasty would be sweet. I have the backing almost ready. I have made a small college of about 6 very special photo's and I have a nice idea of how to embellish and hand sew that on the back with her name and date of birth. I have a name for the quilt picked out and then in much smaller letters I shall put made by and the date. since I am not family, but do want to date and have my name on my quilts I make, I want to make sure it's in good test. I hope that most of you feel it's appealing as so many people, so many taste, but i am happy with it so far. The top quilting is going to be a little probmatice for me as I am not a very schooled FHM person as yet, so I will finding possibly cross stitching in even lines one and then the other should work. I do have a lovely and dainty design stitch that can be done inside the smaller border. Wish me luck.
this one almost full shot

Love the feminine colors of the quilt, without looking"baby." Also, love the inspectors! They look just like my inspector after a trip to the groomer! I just love Bichons, they are such sweet affectionate dogs! Mine doesn't likethe storms either, she hides under the bed.
