Beautiful quilts! Are you in the Trinity Valley Quilters Guild? I was at their show in Sept 2011 and really enjoyed it. Did you have any quilts in it?

Beautiful quilts!!

I like both of them. How do you do the applique. I have done a little hand applique but really don't have enough time. I would like to find some good methods of machine applique

Airedale quilts
 
What a cute idea!
I have a folder titled 'Basenji ideas' this is definitely going into. I tend to make any dog related quilts with a basenji somewhere on them, give a lot to our national club for prizes at our national show, I'm always looking for cute ideas

Love your Airedales! Where did you get the pattern for the dogs?

cuppi duke 11-13-2011 01:30 PM

I love them both, I couldn't choose a favorite. You should be so proud.

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.

What fun! I've never seen Airdales on a quilt. Anyone looking for the Stairway to Cat Heaven pattern it's here: http://www.quiltandsewshop.com/categ...tairway+to+cat

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~

Is there a place in this forum where quilts made with loved creatures are displayed? Id enjoy that. Your quilt is great! Rescued pets are just like any pet but we feel they are special because they give us a chance to do a good deed which always feels great. Bless you for your work of charity.

I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these. We had to put our "Jennie" to sleep 3 years ago. She was 12 and had gone into heart failure. She is sorely missed. thank you for sharing these as they brought a smile to my face and a tear to my eye thinking of my wonderful companion for so many years.
