New pictures of my SP (stash protectors)
Really Maureen, I can't tell you that! How effective will they be if you
come armed with ice cream sandwiches and tennis balls. Donna http://community.webshots.com/user/donna9736 "Maureen Wozniak" wrote in message lobal.net... Very sweet looking (oops, I meant intimidating) stash protectors. And they can be bribed with what--hotdogs, burger, milkbones? (Got to know in case we plan a stash raid) Maureen |

Thanks Cheryl. I'm just happy to be back to quilting and the newsgroup.
Hopefully I'll have some more on topic pictures soon.g -- Donna http://community.webshots.com/user/donna9736 "Cats" wrote in message ... I tip-toed past the guards!

You can come anytime you feel the need to travel "up north" Polly. They'll
be sweet to you since they know that, tough as they are, they're no match for 'gators. Donna http://community.webshots.com/user/donna9736 "Polly Esther" wrote in message ink.net... Awwwww, how beautiful. I want to come love the pups. Rub the ears for Aunt Polly. |

Hmmm...I think I'm glad that you live too far away to organize the raid
Pat...you're just a little too good at reading the stategy.g -- Donna http://community.webshots.com/user/donna9736 "Patti" wrote in message ... Well, the funny thing is, that if you went in a gang (like I understand most stash raiding is done), the collie would her you all together, and then keep circling you, holding you in the 'pen' until her master/mistress came home and released her from her duties g . Best Regards pat on the hill |

Donna. Love your dogs in Chair quilt. Is this an original pattern or can I
get it somewhere? I would love to memorialize my dog pal, Gabby. She is nine years old and finishes her last round of chemotherapy next week. "Donna973" wrote in message |

Thanks. No, not original, except for the dog part. It's a Betty Alderman
pattern called Easy Chairs and you can see it at http://www.bettyalderman.com/applique.htm Scroll down; it's near the bottom of the page. -- Donna http://community.webshots.com/user/donna9736 "srussell" wrote in message news:1joFg.4580$SZ3.1493@dukeread04...

Normal is good Donna.
Those pooches sure are sweet looking for being such attack machines! I bet I have a doggy treat that would be a good bribe ; ) Taria Donna973 wrote: Some bumps in the road of my life have kept me away from the group for a few months, as well as away from quilting. Things seem to be back to normal at this point and quilting is slowing starting to happen again. In the meantime, I thought some of you might enjoy seeing my very big and MEAN stash protectors, Crusher and Killer. (I put their alias' in the photo captions so as not to frighten the general public.) They're "at ease" in these pictures but don't let that fool you. They can attack at a moment's notice should they sense a threat to the safety and security of my stash. They have very large teeth and are not afraid to use them...... Look in the "Pups" folder and prepare to oohhh and aahhh. |

New pictures of my SP (stash protectors)
Howdy!
Of course I love the pics of the pooches, esp. the Spaniel (that long nose is very familiar). On Topic: the WIP pic of the String Pieced quilt, without foundation-- that's the way I do it. Since I handquilt everything I don't want another layer under the top, I like to use batting and backing as usual. Just sewing narrow strips together gives the top plenty of structure. Very nice quilt, Donna, well done!

String pieced quilt was New pictures of my SP (stash protectors)
Thanks Sandy! To be honest, I wasn't sure how that string pieced quilt
would work without a foundation. I'd always heard that, because of the bias involved, a foundation was needed. So I dutifully printed some paper foundations out of EQ. I wanted a certain amount of organization in the blocks so I thought the foundation would help in that. I quickly found out that I don't like paper piecing. I can do it with no problem, but the process is just too tedious for me. I was using official paper piecing foundation paper, but removing it drove me crazy. I can absolutely see where it would make life much easier for certain blocks, but not here. So I ended up just piecing the strips, being a little careful not to stretch them. I made the blocks a bit larger than needed and just whacked them down to size at the end. I really didn't get any distortion to speak of. It was a fun way to use up some scraps. Now all it needs is some quilting..... Donna http://community.webshots.com/user/donna9736 "Sandy Ellison" wrote in message ... Howdy!
