The circular design is the most breathtaking!!! How long did this take? Some day I will get there, I do pray.

Aha! A pug-luver! I love the pug quilt!

I'm ordering the book for the Bella Bella Italian Mosaics for that last one you did. I wanted to do that one too. I ordered it about a week ago.

It's in my library, but you can't tear out the patterns. And in some of the books, the patterns are already torn out. Sometimes you have to just buy 'em.

So, I planned to make that Bella Bella Rose in pink and browns (batiks.) But, I wanted it for a wall hanging. I didn't want it so large. Can you tell me how much material it required?

I'm glad to see someone made it. It's a beautiful design and you've used gorgeous colors. Very nice work, espeically the pugs!

When I popped into the website to order the book and pattern, there was a link for a PDF file for corrections to the first edition. Did you already have this? Here's the correction.

Unfortunately, we didn't know about the wrong directions until we were into it. We used common sense and it got together in the end. When I say "we" I mean our sewing group. A few of us did the Venice Rose. When we notified them that the directions were wrong, they said all those books should have been pulled off the shelves. They then sent us an updated correct book, but too late.

I honestly don't remember how much fabric it took.

Yes, I am a big time pug lover. Do you have a pug?

Great job. Love the dogs and the little one too.

sheliab12 07-09-2008 04:10 AM

I love the circles. I have the new circle cutter and want to use it. Is there a pattern or did you make this one yourself. Is the third one paper pieced. It is so lovely I could not tell. Thanks. The dog of course is adorable but then you new that .

sandpat 07-09-2008 04:17 AM

Absolutely stunning quilts! I am adding the bella bella to my list. I think I'll have to get much better a PP before I tackle that though. Your work is so inspirational...thank you so much for sharing! I love the Pug quilt too, looks like your furry baby does too!

That pattern is called Greek Isle. I got it out of a magazine a couple years ago. Yes, the Bella Bella is paper pieced.

The 2nd one is my favorite!! It's just stunning--as it the last one. The first one is perfect for the pet sitting on it--since he must have been your inspiration. :D

I assume she meant rose petals; however, I concur. The pug quilt is too adorable, almost as adorable as your pug.

rebeljane 02-11-2011 04:18 AM

I love them all but the dog quilt is terrific - the dog looks part of the quilt

DeniseB 02-11-2011 04:50 AM

Wow, what great quilts. They are stunning, your choice of colors is remarkable. I love the Pug one, I grew up with Pugs, they are such a great breed.

3TreeFrog 10-10-2012 03:12 PM

Ok, so for some honesty from me here up on Prince Edward Island
Pug quilt I said "Oh cute"
2nd quilt I said "Ever nice"
3rd quilt I said "Wow, look at that!" to my bitter (oops better) half!

debcavan 10-10-2012 03:14 PM

Mariposa 10-10-2012 03:18 PM
