My girl

I don't post many puppy pictures on my blog but this girl has most of my attention this week so she gets top billing. You see my Izzie girl hasn't been feeling well and just wants to cuddle, even her sister bringing her toys has done little to perk her up.  A trip to the vet confirms she has a UTI so hopefully a few days of medication should bring her back to her fearless spunky self.  Bella and I will both stick close till she's back to herself, taunting her sister to play.

The little sewing I have been able to do consisted of Bee Blocks to get ahead of myself.  


To finish up the "Feathers" quilt top I decided it needed another size feather so I made some minis to fill in the open spots and to throw off the symmetry.  
 

Once I had them all in I made one more to add to the border to make it look like an extension of the tail.  The colors around the outside are a 1/4" thick, since the Michael Miller challenge I have been obsessed with 1/4" piping.  

I will do what I can this week to ditch all the feathers then move on to the free-motion tree I will create within the piecing.


Off to cuddle with my girls, cant leave anyone out of the cuddles.

  6. Oh, I hope some sweet cuddles, love, and attention help Izzie feel more like her normal self soon. She looks like such a sweetheart! I *love* how the feathers quilt top came together - especially how the feather interrupts the border at the bottom. So lovely and well done!

  9. How do dogs get UTIs? I know (all too well) how humans get them. Poor puppy! None of our dogs have ever had one. And how did you know?
    The feathers are wonderful!
