Last blocks finished for Long Time Gone and a sweet friend.....

I am visiting a week with my sweet Mom again and have worked on a couple of projects while I’m here, including the final blocks for LTG.

I finished the 60 degree triangle blocks....



and the 2nd flying geese block.......




I will start sewing all the blocks together for the flimsy when I get home.

I have been wanting to do something special for my dear DIL for awhile with her sweet little Italian Greyhound, Sophie, who went to Rainbow Bridge a couple of years ago.  I found the perfect EPP pattern on Etsy and edited the pattern to adapt to Sophie's markings....


this was my practice piece, which I texted to my DDIL and apparently I did a good job with the markings because she said she knew right away it was Sophie and that the markings were "spot on"....

I am "rewarding" myself on my WOOFA finishes by starting the new "Sophie Project" soon.....lol....

Don't forget to check out Cheryll's page at "Gone Stitchin" for all the October WOOFA finishes....Click HERE

Sophie turned out great! She looks so much like the photo. Good job on your LTG blocks. I hope the weather has improved somewhat for you. Enjoy your visit.
