I don't post very often and never posted pictures before but could use some guidance. I am a fairly new quilter and most of my projects are donated to raise money for basset hound rescue. I posted pictures of 2 projects from last year, the quilt I made in my beginner's quilting class and one of the stuffed hounds I've been making for several years. I did get brave and used a D9p instead of my usual nine patch. The paper pieced hound is yesterday's project for this year's fundraiser. I had done a pp feathered star in a class last year and apparently forgotten most of what I learned but I kept doing it over until I got it. The instructions were really vague for the hound and I had to try and identify body parts by trial and error. If you'll notice what I decided after was his foot is green. I'm sticking to the story that the grass had just been cut. Anyway my goal is to use the hound block as a medallion on the back of a denim jacket but I'm not sure how to accomplish this in the easiest way. Any suggestions are welcome.
