I knew there was not much fabric laying out in the world, so I made a lab face like I did Chloe's face the other day. I am loving it! And down the street is a friend of mine who has two labs and a hound of some sort. Her labs are True and Lark and the rescue girl is Maji. Must have been found around Christmas!
I found a nice lab head and did my thread painting. And put a hanger on it. It turned out to be about 7 by 9, which is a really neat size. I still need to get more confidence and add some additional shading in there. But that will come with time I am sure.
Her house has some trees I hope to hang this on in her front yard. They do several walks each day with the three dogs and I am pretty sure she will know it was me who put it there.
Unless she has some other doggy, quilty friends!
Off to see if I can slip it into her tree without her knowing.I really didn't have a whole lot of time to place it, her dogs started barking the minute I walked by. All three of them!
So I was hoping she was not home. I can see her driving up the driveway, something catches her eye! And she backs up to look.
Whoa! A dog! How cool!
Nice! I've been meaning to tell you I like your new blog header!
ReplyDeleteYou are developing great technique with these pieces. I'm sure your neighbor is going to love it.
ReplyDeleteThis walk around has thrown me for a bit of a loop. I was planning on doing something with the pothole in front of my driveway and making some art for the guys when then come to fill it, but I could not find my chalk. If they haven't fill it by tonight I will then continue with my plan after I find a piece of chalk. Your piece for your neighbor is so fun and hanging in her tree is a great idea!
ReplyDeleteYou could make a quilt with various doggie faces and do your raffle for your animal shelter. :o)
