Weiner Dog Quilt

I made this quilt for my horseback riding instructor, Carol. She recently lost her weiner dog, Bruce. It was extra sad because her other one, Louise, had passed earlier this year. I saw this pattern the very next day and had to make it for her. The dogs and hearts are appliqued with Steam a Seam Lite then machine blanket stiched.

This is the back of the quilt. I quilted it by stiching in the ditch and straight line quilting around the border.

I made this label using purchased Ink Jet Fabric Sheets. I works really well but the fabric was so glaringly white. I tea stained it and hand sewed it to the quilt.
I'm giving Carol this quilt today. I hope she likes it...!

Warm Cool Quilt Along



I decieded to join the Warm Cool Quilt Along on In Color Order's Blog. Here are my fabrics for that one. We are supposed to cut 25 5 inch squares of both warm and cool colors. I'm doing 2 of each fabric. I really wanted to use what I had on hand.
