Okay, this is as good as it will get! Wool is all frayed an so are me noyves!! Every time I try to edit I make it worse so now to do his bum, (I feel like kicking it by now)!! Now I know how the dog feel with these frustrating little creatures, lol!

Sadie and I on the water


My little corgi mix Sadie looks like she loves the water but in truth she does not like to get her belly wet and when your legs are only about 6 inches long that is not very deep,lol.
When I would kayak Sadie would cry and follow me down the bank and even try to swim out to me she was so worried about me so now I put her between my legs and she is happy. My daughter Katie says we both have the same expression on our faces.
Sadie is so cute and such a good little dog.

Noah's Ark squirrel arrived!




Here is the kit from Lenny for the squirrel.
I started the squirrel but I am not happy with the colors so I will fiddle arround. A Number three cut is not reverse hooking friendly, lol.

Giraffe done!!!


The background I used is a recycled Black Watch quilt from Frenchy's. I used the wool binding method from Wendy Miller site. http://www.theredsaltbox.com/rugbinding.html
I may try to sell this one as he stares at me too much, lol..

Almost done the sky, now hmmmm..what the heck can I do for a border now!
11 x 16" #4 cut on linen.Legend has it the Tower of London will collapse and the kingdom will fall if all the ravens leave.

This is my design for a monochromatic workshop with Barb Leduc.
I have always been intrigued by this legend and ravens so I combined the two for the workshop.
