It's A Dog's Life

Lots of sharing, showing off our beautiful little dogs (and cats) and enjoying each other's company! This happens when Joan of Moosestash Quilting and Carol of Just Let Me Quilt challenge us to stitch up something for Sew It - Show It!

September's challenge is hosted by Carol - This month Carol prompted "It's A Dog's Life" - How true is that? We all love our little furry friends and they pretty much boss us around. (The alternative challenge was to think vintage - I'm thinking Dick, Jane & Spot. I taught my baby brother to read with those books!

This month, I found a cute embroidery pattern and stitched it onto a coaster to gift to a sweet friend my husband and I just met. They have a new dog too! Sugar-bear... The stitch out is in honor of their newest family member.

You can find the design at Embroidery Designs.com

Please stop by all the other participants to see what they've created to share with us! An aside note, my Lil' Apple Jack loves wearing her sweaters. She acts like we've treated her extra special when she wears one. It was a little cooler when we left for vacation from Florida to West Viriginia. Poor little gal was shivering! Problem solved!

Sew It - Show It Challenge Coming Up!

Just a lot of sharing and enjoying each other's company! This is happening every month with Joan of Moosestash Quilting and Carol of Just Let Me Quilt. They share a challenge for anyone that wishes to join and we in turn grab up the challenge and stitch something up for share and tell!

We provide inspiration, encouragement and friendship. Sometimes there are tutorials and patterns provided. Sometimes there are just witty and genius ideas shared.

This month Carol challenged/ and is hosting "It's A Dog's Life" - sew/stitch a project that is dog related. We can all relate! So many of us just simply cannot go any where without our little furry. (There is an alternative to use something / do something vintage...I'm thinking Dick, Jane & Spot. Who remembers reading those learning sources?)

Here's a sneak peak of Apple Jack - Fully Known as Lil' Emily Apple Jack! Tune in to see her all grown up!
