Paw Prints All Over My Quilts!
Posted on | March 9, 2015 | 13 Comments
Yes, there are paw prints all over my quilt but I am very happy to see them there.
This is another UFO done and dusted. This is a simple strip quilt based on Mary’s pattern.
I have made it slightly longer, then added borders.
I loved the dog fabric when I saw it and decided to put it into a simple quilt so the fabric wasn’t cut into small pieces.
Note to self – use the lint roller before taking photos.
There was a matching argyle pattern so I used that together with a solid to make the strips.
I am so pleased I used a solid in the border because it really lets the paw prints show up strongly.
The binding is the same as the backing fabric.
I love the paw prints on the back, too.
This is such a fun and easy quilt to make. I am sure there will be more of these.
It is a long weekend here with Monday as the extra holiday. And the weather couldn’t be better. Sunny, warm and a cool breeze. Lots of outside time with a 3yo playing with water and digging in the garden. Perfect.
And a Friday evening concert to see Dan Sultan. Wonderful.
Hope your weekend was wonderful, too.
Cheers, Karen
A cute quilt – wise move not to chop up that print. The quilting is perfect!!(Do you mind if I pin a photo of the quilting?)
Hi Karen,
Your dog quilt is so cute!! Love your fabric and your paw print quilting.
Cute quilt! I had to trace your paw prints to figure the pattern out. You’ve got them so well balanced that it took a while. This looks like a quick, easy quilt pattern. I might use it for donation quilts. The border really wraps it up neatly.
What a cute quilt… Love the colours! Xox

Lol, The paw print couldn’t be more perfect on this fun quilt. The dog fabric is so sweet. It’s such a lovely time of year, it sounds as though your making the most of it playing out doors with a busy 3 year old.

Such sweet fabric Karen. Love your quilt and those pawprints are perfect
