Are you a dog or cat person?
We've had both. I think I'm a bit more of a cat person.
However, we do have a sweet dog that we "inherited" when our son died.
Her name is Lacey. {aka. Puppy Head, Lacey Lou, Rump Roast, Baby Girl, Beast}
I truly love my sweet Lacey Lou. And she truly loves me and hubby.
Another thing she truly loves is to roll around on the bed in our guest room.
Oh such a cute puppy. Ahhh such a comfy bed.
However, I don't always love the results of such cuteness.
Yep! That would be: puppy-1, quilt-0
Oh well. At least it's not a quilt I spent hours making.
I bought a bed-in-a-bag set a number of years ago before I started quilting.
The set came with two pillow shams. I use one on the bed. The second one I cut up to make tiebacks for the curtains. I'm so glad I saved the scraps that were left over from that second sham.
Just a little cutting and deconstruction with my scissors, an iron and some stuff called "Heat-n-Bond" and I was able to patch up my poor puppy-love abused quilt.
Since it's a patchwork design to begin with, I think the added patches look absolutely fine. A little newer looking perhaps, but I'm sure they'll look battle worn in no time.
Ah- hem! Don't even think about it my sweet Miss Lacey!
Stay! Good girl!
Now I'm off to the quilted comforter on my bed. No extra scraps to work with, but I have a couple of ideas that may work.
I guess if I also count that one the score is: puppy-2, quilts-0
Oh my Lacey Lou. You're so lucky you give me such good kisses when I get home from work.
