Day 4 - 365 Take a walk

I made some changes in my Day 4, but I think you will like them.

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!

  3. This 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!
