    Wendy, Your friend was willing to have her father represented by a boat. You didn't mention how that part of the quilt was going. I am wondering that since you don't have photo of her mother that is working very well for you could there be another way to symbolize her. If Dad is a boat, who/what is she? Why don't you talk with your friend and try to figure out a way to represent her mother that could work for both of you. Hope you get it figured out. Sounds like you are not quite ready to let the whole thing go. Good luck.

      She's asked if I carry on with Charlie (dog) and the boat, I feel fine with that though I haven't done his facial features yet so that could go pear shaped.

      I like the idea of the photo collage behind the dog but with printer AWOL and not much time, I'll keep it simple. Shall I show you dog so far

              Has anyone heard from Limbania? Haven't seen her on here for what seems like a long time.

                  Meet Charlie the faceless dog. I am so scared now of messing up his face.

                      I sent her an email. She is alive and kicking but very busy.

                        Great looking whippet so far, Wendy. Just don't stick anything down until the face looks right :wink:

                          Charlie is beautiful. There is NO WAY you will mess up his face, Wendy! Glad you know Limbania is well and I'm sure she'll catch up with us when she can--thanks for checking with her, Lois.

                            charlie is doing great - just try out the eyes in different ways - then stick them down when you´re perfectly satisfied.
