sewingpup Posted August 26, 2017 Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 all I can think of....not a fancy quilter mind you....is to do some outlining of the heads and faces....and do a dog bone meander....pretty simple I know....who is the quilt going to....that might make a difference.....Lin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgardog Posted August 26, 2017 Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 If you want e2e, I would do paw prints or the meander with bones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbinsbobbins Posted August 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 This will be going to my 4th grand baby due in less than 3 weeks. My mind was working on this while I slept. I was thinking outline Sid on the dogs, my border, not pictured, is 3.5 inches, and will have bones using a template with match stick surrounding the bones. Orange sized spirals in the quilt background. How does that sound? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted August 26, 2017 Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 Robbin; Machine trapunto with wash-away top thread so the dogs truly pop out of the quilt. Then a somewhat tight meaner with dog bones, dog sound "woof", "ruff", etc., dog bowl, tennis balls, whatever you can think of dog's like in the blue. Around the number 9 dog (right column second from bottom) have be sure to have dog leash run from its neck to the side border/binding. That way above your label on the back, you can have a small look of cloth, so the grand baby can walk their dog while holding the blanket. Let us see it when your are done with it.

Robbinsbobbins Posted September 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2017 Thank you so much for wonderful advice. I was too far along to try trupunto, great suggestion, but I think the doggies pop because I used 2 layers of batting. It does feel heavy somewhat, but fine. I was asked to share pictures! I am pleased with how it turned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
