    Here's an OBW I just finished for a good friend in the UK who breeds dogs. I FMQ'd it and only my second attempt - far from perfect but I'm happy to send it! Thanks so much to Dunster and Jan who both showed OBWs a while back that inspired my choice of fabric and the idea of leaving a full block of the original fabric. I'm showing some close ups of the detail as well. :D

    One Block Woofers - couldn't resist calling it that!

    That is so cute! I never would have thought to try that type of print in such a quilt. Nice job quilting too!

    Hi Katie! I wouldn't have thought of this fabric either but Dunster posted a pic a while ago using this fabric - same range but smaller dogs - so I 'copied'! Can't take any credit myself, I'm afraid! Thanks for your kind comment on the quilting! It's a bit like patting your head and rubbing your belly for me but I'm getting better! :wink: :D

    Thanks mamgus and quilt4u! :D These are such fun - I've got fabric to make more - just got other things to finish first, but these are a REAL favourite! :D

    That's so nice. I never really "GOT" the concept of 1 block wonders but they sure turn out beautiful quilts.
