This months challenge is all about the dogs for me.
With 2 little ones around all week, I have become an aficionado, when it comes to cartoons. There are plenty of them featuring dogs, but "Bluey" is my little ones favorite and I have do say, it's mine too. If you don't know about "Bluey" it's an Australian cartoon about a blue healer family. The story lines all revolve around parents playing with kids. It's really a heart warming show that I love watching as much as my little's do. When Carol announced this theme, I went right to the internet in search of Bluey clipart and was all ready to start on an applique quilt, BUT...then I saw these embroidery designs at Applique Designz and it was game over!
I have not been in love with my embroidery machine for a very long time. Most days it works my last nerve, in fact I even put it up on Facebook marketplace and tried to unload it! Unfortunately or as it turns out fortunately, I wasn't able to. These designs were just so darn cute that I decided to give them a try and was pleasantly surprised. Was it the digitizing or was it the threat of me selling it off?
Whatever it was, my machine behaved beautifully for a change.
Yes, I thanked my lucky stars. LOL!!
I embroidered and quilted each block separately and put them together, with the QAYG method.
The 2 stars of the show, are Bluey and Bingo.
What all lead up to this, was a challenge a few months ago where I was captivated with this You Tube video, one of our fellow bloggers shared...
It's been on my radar ever since and actually how I found the embroidery designs
Someone is going to have to grow into his...
But it's safe to say this little girl loves hers!
Now hop on over and see what the dog days of summer has brought out, in my fellow bloggers today.
Be sure to leave them a little love with a sweet comment too!
Here's a big ole pink "Smoochy" from Coco, to all!
til next time...
Keep on Stitchin'
