Can I go and play too?
Description:
Can I go and play too? - We had a lot of cats visiting our garden and our dog badly wanted to go and play so he would get on his hind legs and look out of the window then look at me with pleading eyes. By the time he got downstairs and out all the cats had scattered so there was no one to play with. I made this and another similar as a memorial quilt to him. It helped me get to terms with my loss. I drew cat silhouettes and the silhouette of my dog from photos, digitised the cats and ME on top of pieced blocks. The dog silhouette was too big for my hoop so it is appliquéed. I digitised paw prints and quilted it in the hoop with the embroidery unit.
