One turtle block from me so far, hoping to get 2 more done by the end of the month. Would like to donate this month since I won last...

Here is a third Pet Block. Another...

Hi Again! I got one more finished. I just hope I can get all nine finished and sent in before it’s too...

The picture is not very good. Doggy has a mouth! I won a quilt before I ever was a quilter. Bought a ticket because I wanted to support the Human Society. I love that quilt. If you are interested, I blogged about it here: http://laceandquilts.blogspot.com/search/label/dogs%20and%20cats%20quilt%20won Tried to make a block up without the pattern and it came out the right size. Here it...

Hi Fellow Block Lotto’ers!!! Here’s my Scotty Dog Block for this month. I hope there will be more time for me to make more pets blocks this month. Sorry but I’ve been kept too busy with life to participate for a few months. Hopefully I’ll be able to finish out the year with a better...

Okay, here is the cat I mentioned in my previous post.  This is exactly like the one in the book, only enlarged.  This one was alot easier to make....

  Here’s a fabric version of an 8-ft-long corn snake my family owned for about 4 years. We thought of him as a pet, so I’m throwing him into the mix. There’s a funny story associated with the snake. It had been owned by my brother Lawrence, who’s a naturalist, and when I flew out to St. Louis some years ago to visit him and his family with my 3 sons, one of them really fell in love with the snake. So my brother gave...

This one is from Better Homes and Gardens – 501 Quilt Blocks, A Treasury of Patterns & Applique Book, page 285.  It is 4 inches in the book, so, it needed enlarging.  Graph paper and some modifications, it didn’t have ears, (I know, right). Well, this is what I got.  I am going to try to make it without ears, then let you decide if it is okay. But, that’s for...

Hi everyone, Here is my attempt at a cat block – I have only had black and white cats before.  This one probably needs whiskers. The pattern comes from one for a stuffed animal in the Joy of Patchwork Better Homes and Gardens Murdoch Publishers 1994....

Here are three more fish from me for this month.  That makes a total of four and I think that is going to be it for the month.  Sorry for the poor picture quality but I needed to get this done and didn’t take the time to pay aorund with light etc.  Still trying to finish three UFO’s and then I am taking a trip to MA and...

I guess it depends upon your definition of “household” as to whether or not a rabbit is a household pet.   I think as long as you feed and give shelter to somebody then it’s part of the household. My oldest son raised rabbits who had names in our barn and we actually paid to feed them. I used Sally’s (The Objects of Design blog) bunny tutorial.  She also did a little cabbage tutorial for me because I want to use the...
