Festival Pet Project

Monday, October 8th, 2012

Postcards are not my thing, but dog rescue is, so I really wanted to make something for the “Festival Pet Project” to benefit “Friends For Life” in Houston.

These are 4 x 6 ” and fiddley to make. I intended to do two pieced ones, but the Yorkie took about three days, so I opted to add two whole cloth ones instead. The Yorkie, from a photo of Nikki, my daughter’s dog who died recently, took five different fabrics and three colors of quilting threads. I did a satin stitch edge on the wholecloth ones that I wasn’t thrilled with so opted for a real binding on the pieced one. They will all be priced the same at Festival, $20 each, so I hope these help.
