    If I can get caught up on my other projects, I will make a set of dawgs to go with the cats. I think the 'Raining Cats & Dawgs' is a great idea, and I know what my center block will be if I can pull this off!!

    At least I still have a month & a half to get my arse in gear, right? :-)

    Ok, thanks for the reminder, Patti!

    I love the applique with an attitude. I think I'm gonna try it tonight and see how I do.

    This will be fun! Searching now for blocks...

    Goodie!!! I'm getting excited!! Yes, there is still plenty of time left to get your dawgs in a row..LOL!

    I'm thinking that I will make at least a 2nd set of Phydeaux...then maybe come up with another fun one. I know these are gonna be as great as the cat blocks were..so I'll need to get lots of them! heeehehhehehehheh!

    Dotty, I haven't read that book, but it sounds like a fun read...summertime type reading, right?

    I'm glad you guys are gonna try the applique with an attitude..its really easy and fun to do. It goes so quickly. I get 1 of these dogs done in just 1 evening watching tv.
