Wilson!

It has been so busy around here, so much quilty fun to be involved in!  Well I couldn't resist when I heard about "Pet on Quilts" hosted by Lily Pad Quilting!  So I'm going to throw my hat in the ring and present to you, Wilson!  My amazing four legged companion! He keeps me company while I sew, will remind me when I need to take a break and go outside with him and "roo-roo-roo's" when I finish a project.  He is my four legged cheerleader! Wilson has been featured on a couple of quilt projects and I thought it would be fun to show you the Wilson blocks I have designed for the Think Christmas Blog Hop (a little cross posting ).

Wilson Reindeer

Is this package for me????
Wilson Santa

Wilson Christmas Table Runner
My Wilson blocks are available on Craftsy and also at my Etsy Store... my tutorial on how to make my Wilson Christmas Table Runner can be found HERE.  ('Is This Gift for Me' is a FREE down loadable PDF on my Craftsy site) This was such a fun project to make that it just makes me smile to think about it!  These patterns can be made to look like your poochie poo by switching up the colors to match your favorite puppy!  I've been thinking Wilson would make an adorable lap quilt!  Imagine repeating the blocks, switching up the puppy colors.... so, so cute! 

As any proud puppy mama, I have to share a couple of more pictures of my sweet boy.... starting out with his 'baby' picture...
3 months old... isn't he adorable!


"Love the quilting on this quilt.... is this quilt for me?"

"Of coarse I'll pose in the picture..."
Thank you for letting me share my sweetie, 'Wilson'.  Have fun hopping around and checking out all of the links and all of our well loved friends!

Happy quilting and perfect stitches to you!
