Little dog? Don't know if I could do a little dog. Ya'll know that I now have a dog, right? Yep, adopted a giant pup. She was an owner surrender. Her owners were moving south to Louisiana and said it was too hot for her there. Sooo....we went and got her. They named her Tinkerbelle, but I changed it to Belle. There's nothing tinker about her.
I'll post a pic of her later.
Ya'll will just have to figure out what kind of giant pup she is

Afraid I agree ....... I am more of a small project and small lap quilts for hospice type gal. I like simple. I actually just got a copy of Simple Quilts by Me and My Sister. 12 simple designs that should be right up my alley.😃

I know it’s late in the game and there’s even a box mailed out!! EEEEK!!! Incase these still apply, I wadded through the posts (Guess how long that took) and here are all the questions I found. I’m actually really easy to please. I just love quilting and anything quilting… This week I’m finishing up a quilt for my daughter to give her bestie as a wedding gift. The bride and groom are both Police Officers. My daughter asked me LAST WEEK to make them a ThinBlueLine quilt. Good thing it’s a simple pattern and blacks are plentiful at the stores. My quest this week is free motion quilting it. I’m not getting inspiration on that…..
Without further ado my answers…. Hope I didn’t miss any. I tried to color my answers, it didn't cut/paste from my word program... lol
