At first she was unsure of what it was, and then cautiously ventured into it. By the end of the day she was jumping and romping around in it having a great time. While she does like to play in it for a short time, the poor thing gets a little chilly.
Dave asked if I would make her a quilt to snuggle up on while we watch tv in the evening. She loves her blankets in the kennel so it would stand to reason that she will love this one...
Dave wanted something much fancier than this, but it will have to do. I selected a variety of fabrics... (mostly brown to hide her hair that she loses). He had asked for dog bones to be quilted into it. I put a few, but then I took advantage of an opportunity to work on my free motion quilting. Her name is stitched in a few times along with some commands (like sit, lay, down and No! No!)
I attempted to do the dog bones free motion, but they looked a bit odd... that was when I went to the script lettering. It looks good, well, most of it anyway... But, really a girl needs to practice to get better, right?
I hope that Shelby likes it and it would be even better if she used it!
Have a blessed and happy Thanksgiving!
