I love your quilts and I applique most every quilt I make and use wonderunder and blanket stitch around I like it that way but I also do freezerpaper where you press the edges over on the waxed with the iron then use invisable tread on top and blind stitch so it looks hand done. I took a lesson on freezer paper method years ago. bignan

Stairway to Cat Heaven

'Hearts & Dales' is from Fons & Porter magazine. It was called 'I Wooly Love Ewe' and featured sheep. Again, I enlarged it to queen size and used my beloved Airedales rather than sheep. I've had it about a year now and I haven't been able to let go of it, yet. I'm sure that I will donate it to Airedale Rescue in the future.
I do make quilts other than Airedales but they aren't as interesting.

Wow! What a great resource you are for the rescue. I have some patterns I've wanted to try for my breed of dog but haven't gotten around to touching it. These are great patterns you've shared. Thanks so much~
