Thanks so much. I'm about to embark on a collage challenge with a group. Your instructions will be a great help. I think Atlas is one of the best dog quilts I've ever seen--his personality comes through loud and clear. I love it (and had saved a copy of your picture just to show my husband how great it is!).

I too would like to thank you. I've been curious about the method...not sure I'll try it, but I'm a sucker for anything new to learn, so I imagine that I will at some time or other. Thanks to the quilting board (and the wonderful people who make it) I now have a starting point.

Thank you for posting your collage of Atlas and seeing him in pictures, well, you did an amazing job! I just love your quilt.
I'm not sure I will ever do a collage but you sure did pique my interest and the information you provided make it seem doable.

This may have turned into a book but it's a great read and very informative. I am so glad I read that you did this tutorial in your original post. Thanks for going to all the work to write it all out. It's inspirational for sure. I personally have started watching Susan Carlson's videos a couple of months ago and she is very clear about what she does. Her crocodile quilt is unbelievable and huge! Still ... I hesitate to get my feet wet with this project until I know I have some time "alone" to work on it. Keep up the good work!

Watson, Thank you so much for this information! Especially the quilting part. The glueing part, I understand, but nobody really tells how to quilt. I tend to be a coward when it comes to trying new things. I tell myself to try 'cause it's only fabric, but still I hesitate. I hope to give it a try, at least, soon. You're lovely "Atlas" and your instructions are a huge help. Again, thank you.
