Stitching Favourite Subject & Colours

a rottie's love
I have just mailed a square off for Love Quilts. This exquisitely designed rottie is for Kyle B. who chose realistic dogs (Yay, he likes Rottweilers!) His quilt will be put together by volunteers at the beginning of October. I know, I know I’m cutting the delivery of my square close again. Every time I sign up for a square I say never again, and then leave it to the last minute. But after this many years of living with me, I’m finally accepting that some things just aren’t going to change. You can see the scans of squares already completed for him here.The pattern, Rottweiler DR 501 ©2004 is by Canadian designer Brenda Franklin of Brenda Franklin Designs. This was a wonderful pattern to stitch; the chart is very clear and the symbols well chosen. There are no fractional stitches or back-stitching, yet the Rottie jumps to life under your fingers.
With heart felt thanks to my “imaginary friend” Pam at Classic Hobbies! (another not so LNS! )
