I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your Casey. When a doctor I know lost his dog, he took a few days off work and then when he was back at work he had tears in his eyes all day; he said it was like losing one of his children - don't let anyone tell you that "it's only a dog".

I love the way you used the colors in your quilts.

Great quilts! Sorry to hear about the loss of your beloved pet. I know what you mean about the black background. I am finishing up a quilt right now that is more black than anything else. I have an all white cat (see avatar) and 2 shepherds that shed something terrible. I will be gifting it next Friday. As soon as I get the binding on it and it is washed and dried, it will go into a bag without ever leaving the laundry room and then will go to the garage until we leave Friday morning for Michigan!

So sorry about Casey. Bless your heart. Love your quilts, the black background really pops that fabric!

I love your quilts they are both just beautiful. The black may be hard to care for but I really love it. So sorry about your sweet dog, having lost a few that were in the family for a long time I know how hard it is to be without them. I still miss each one.

Both quilts are magnificent, those starts just pop! Nice job, and it's fun to get a prize for all your hard work. Many condolences on the loss of your loved pet. They give us so much pleasure and no matter how old they are it's hard to send them to the Rainbow Bridge. They hold our hearts, that's for sure. I hope that eventually you'll take another dog into your life.

Both are beautiful, but the stars really call out to me. Wonderful, wonderful quilts.

Sorry to hear about losing you special friend. It's hard we lost ours in 2002 and our son got another one just as cute. Love the quilts, would like to get the pattern for the bargello. PM me if you can give it out. Thanks in advance. Barb
