Great job on the quilt. So sorry for your loss. We lost our black lab 2 years ago and buried her in "her" quilt that I made. I am sure your Samantha will be greatly missed.

My son raises Newfoundland's and they are beautiful dogs. Gentle giants!!

Wow that is just so Beautiful and also that you have loved your devoted pet to make this in memory of her. I had a shih tzu x cocker sp. for 14 yrs. and when it came time to the decision to have her put to sleep it was so hard she was such a devoted and faithful furbaby. I miss her so much that I still have her picture and ashes on my dresser. She was also the best trucking buddy too.

But I take a lot of comfort seeing what you have done and I know in my heart that I will make one for Buttons. Thank you for sharing and my heart goes out to you and all the people in Sam's life that she filled with joy.

cbuchanan- my heart goes out to you. Been in your shoes :(
Take care sweetie.

Thanks much. I have better news today. ER Vet put her on 3 meds that stimulate the heart and today she is breathing much easier. I just knew yesterday would be her day but God does look after his special creatures and she's doing better today. I guess all animal lovers experience this pain and grief. It's comforting to know that there are others who care.

I know, It just stinks that our wonderful animal companions have such a short time with us. And yes there is a special place in our hearts for each of our beloveds friends.

I am so sorry for your loss. This quilt is a lovely tribute to your time together. My husband would be even more devistated than I if we lost our little furry children. This gives me an idea for a gift for him. He would love to have a quilt with his darling little ladies honored in such a special way. Great job!!!

You have to let them go long before you're ready but they are always in your heart. This will be a reminder of the good times.

The love we have for our pups is so special. What a wonderful tribute.

Am so happy for your good news. Just loved our beloved 16 yr old husky to something. Vet diligently treated him for about 5 months but there's only so much that can be done. We put him to sleep when the white blood cells skyrocketed and the red ones plummeted - vet's words. I miss him terribly and am still carrying a couple of wads of fur from him in my purse. This was the dog that my girls grew up with. We have his ashes and will bury him but are looking for the right marker to put over him.

Beautiful wall hanging to commemorate your beloved furbaby. So sorry for your loss. They go way too soon - much sooner than we're ready for and can even accept.

I just received an issue of Catalog Favorites" and in it I found the most wonderful plaque which I will order when my baby girl is gone. The plaque says, "If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever." That really said what my heart is feeling.
