Well I wanted to make a quilt on my new treadle. But I needed something small

After Bill's posted about Lola getting sick and making her a quilt it made me think of my puppy.

She is getting older and sleeps a lot more now so I thought she would love a quilt of her own as ahe loves to snuggle in

When I gave her the quilt it was so funny she went NUTS! acted like a puppy

Here it is

Sassy's quilt!

Aww thanks Billy it was with your encouragement and seeing Lolas quilt that I wanted to attempt something
I gotta tell you. It did a LOT Better then when I sew on my newfangled machines lol
I only messed up one intersection on lining up normally my quilts are all messed up..... but shhhhh dont tell no one lol.


Thank you everyone
I adore my little sassy girl she is the best dog.
She is only 10 but for a Chihuahua she is aging fast.
I hope I get another 10 years out of her but if not I want her to know she is loved everyday.

Lostn51 08-20-2010 06:40 PM

I am honored that I could give inspiration on a project and it really makes me happy that it was done all on a treadle!! That is the best compliment anyone could ever pay me. And did you not love your Singer 66 and how smooth it sewn.

I am still doing the happy dance here and so is Sassy!!!

WOW!!! You did a great job on your puppy's quilt!! It's quite obvious pup thinks so, too!! Just look at that happy little face!!! :lol:

Lori L 08-20-2010 06:56 PM

I just showed DH and he's asking when I'm going to make a quilt for our three dogs. Two of them already weight >100lbs and the puppy is on her way there. I think I'd better plan on a kingsize. LOL. By the way.....I have a treadle coming my way from my husband's grandmother. Can't wait to get my hands on it and try it out. I'm sure I'll be asking for help getting it cleaned up and running.

Adorable!!! I made my Toto a little fleece Winnie the Pooh blanket, and he hauls it around and chomps holes in it. He thinks of it as a security blankie, and a toy, too. Your baby is as cute as his quilt!

annieshane 08-20-2010 07:23 PM

I just had to add my awwwwwww to your touching story. We also have a little darling and can't imagine life without her. It is apparent that Sassy loves her quilt. It must have really made your day brighter.

Good job on the tredle. So glad you are happy with the tredle and Sassy's love of her quilt. Aren't those little things just the smartiest!!!

CarrieAnne 08-20-2010 07:35 PM

Aw, Sassy is really cute! Such a sweet face, I THINK she is smailing about her quilt. Nice job!!!!!

MaryStoaks 08-20-2010 08:29 PM

Very nice quilt. They don't come any cuter than your sweetie dog.

Ditter43 08-20-2010 08:33 PM

That's so sweet! :-D :thumbup:

AbbyQuilts 08-20-2010 08:42 PM

I have a feeling this quilt is now going to have to go with us everywhere!
She has not left it since I gave it to her. I have not even washed it yet lol. I guess that can wait till another day she is just to happy to have her own quilt and not have to share.


(now if we would only get another king size bed so she could have her own and not have to share with 2 humans who always get in the way of her beauty sleep)

Jingle 08-20-2010 09:09 PM

Very cute, I have a 2 year old Chihuahua, she is a bundle of energy and likes to chew on the towels I put in her crate, think I will wait until she stops that before I think about making her one.
Your doggie is cute too.

mom2suki 08-20-2010 09:16 PM

Oh, she's so happy...that's so cute! My chihuahua, Jaxson, love to get under blankets, too! Guess I ought to make a little quilt for him, right??

Fox 08-20-2010 09:19 PM

She really seems to know that it's hers!

Leota 08-20-2010 09:20 PM

oh she is just too cute.

Mine did that for years. i have quilts, blankets and all kinds of things with holes
She grew out of it I am thinking by the time she was 5 maybe before that and it was wayyy worse when she was 3 and under.
At that time I was mending holes ever week it seemed

Aunt Retta 08-20-2010 11:10 PM

The quilt and little dog are both wonderful! Don't you just love dogs!

earthwalker 08-20-2010 11:24 PM

Beautiful little quilt...but Abby...one for wash and one for wear...so get "treadling" on another one! I am very keen to get a treadle...love the whole concept and have been very keenly watching posts and gathering info here. I am convinced by what I have seen on the board, that treadles and their "operators" can create magnificent quilts and just think of the tiny carbon footprint!

Rob 08-21-2010 03:23 AM

She is precious. And it looks like you made her favorite gift!

SueDor 08-21-2010 05:04 AM

You can tell she loves it!

littlehud 08-21-2010 07:28 AM

What a cute quilt. And a darling dog. Thanks for sharing.

quilt addict 08-21-2010 08:28 AM

Oh you guys have such cute furbabies! Sure makes me want to get another one. I guess I could just makes some for my feline babies. I do have a few they sleep on which were just made from a cutter quilt a quild member gave me. They sure do deserve something pretty like yours.

Maksi 08-21-2010 08:57 AM

OMG! She is such a cutie. It looks like she immediatly knew that quilt was specially made for her. Those pics are so cute and also so funny. She is adorable.
