We are dog-sitting this week and my kids and I thought that Truman needed a quilt. Well, I suggested it and they jumped on the idea. Now they think I need to make each of our 3 cats a quilt... but the cats prefer to sleep in my stash so I really don't think they need any! LOL!

We cut out letters and the boys helped me put them in order, and then I attempted free motion quilting. (That was the real motive behind making the dog a quilt. I didn't want to make a person my guinea pig.) FMQ-ing really made my hands hurt! I went and got the "sticky gloves" today so I will see if that makes a difference on the next one.

The fabric has little scottie dogs on it! So cute.

This is the front. I used heat-n-bond and a satin stitch to attach the letters.
