One Last Finish...

for 2011!

A friend will become a grandmother for the first time soon!

As it has been on my 'to-do' list for quite some time,

I didn't need another excuse to make this.....


This is a Denyse Schmidt free pattern, available here!

The patchwork was the easy part!

The rest.....Well,

I'm not sure I'd make another one!


Although he is pretty cute, isn't he?

Oh, I did some fabric shopping today too!

But I will leave that until another time!

Happy days!

SUZ

    He's adorable Suz!! This little fellow used to be very popular "way back when" - I have a very old toy pattern book and a similar puppy is in there! You have done a great job making him and I'm sure your friend will love it!!

    Happy New Year!!

    Loving the colours you used but can see that piecing the front and the back together to the long strip might be a bit of a nightmare!

    I've always loved that pattern too. Your colours are fabulous. I predict many fun hours of playing with this little guy by someone who loves him.

    He looks so cute, a pity he was not so easy to make. Love your colour choices and I'm sure he will be well loved in his new home.

    sometimes those cute little projects can drive you mad, huh? I did one yesterday that I almost cried over. But, your little dog is quite cute.

    I made one of these too in some of the DSQ fabrics - and I agree with the patchwork being the easy bit:)
