OM and Zu Finishes

Read last weeks post for an explanation of the OM symbol. The one from last week hangs in my home.

This one is for sale in my Etsy shop here

 

The quilting doesn't show up as good as the previous because there is more of a print. I think in the future if I want to showcase quilting a solid or tonal works the best.

 

I showed you my cartoon like Zu Zu (my dog) a couple weeks ago - photo on top.

Since then I darkened under the ears and wanted to show you what a difference that one thing made.

And added her little name tag - so cute :-)

I can't believe it's almost thanksgiving already! We have had a very good November here in Vermont. It's usually dark rainy and gloomy most every November day but this year we actually are getting a lot of sunny days. Today in the 50's!

I will be doing my favorite thing - taking a walk with my dogs through crunching leaves covered trails.

We have to watch where we go though since it's hunting season.

Get out there and enjoy it while it lasts!

What's your favorite fall activity?

Pup art

I was inspired by the work of Helene Knott - go here to see some of her patterns - soooo cute!

I wanted to try a cartoonish looking dog and not having the drawing talent of Helene I found a public domain copyright free to use drawing online and went from there.

The attitude of this little guy reminds me of my crazy little dog Zu so made my pup with her coloring.

 

Looking at her now, I think the area under the ears needs to be darker. I'll just shade that area a bit.

And maybe a dog tag attached to her collar?

 

Won't she look cool sitting atop a bookshelf?

Ready to pounce in case a squirrel or rabbit decides to invade my home
