Some of you might think this post is a bit boring, but for quilters, enjoy. We wanted to share what Mama FINALLY finished after 2 years. Yep, 2 years. It was almost done after the first winter she worked on it, then it was Spring, then Summer & you know, you start doing things outside while the weather is nice. So the quilt just sat in a corner. Well about 3 weeks ago, Mama finally decided to finish this quilt. It's only her second huge quilt, nothing fancy. But it sure will keep us warm when we curl up in it, hehehehe. And yes, Mama lets us curl up on her quilts.
Papa is hiding behind the quilt, holding it up while standing on the bar stools.
Here are some of the blocks on the quilt:
And now for the really important stuff:

oh dogness that is an amazingly beautiful quilt. we dogs don't see very many hand made quilts these days. we could totally believe that it would take 2 years to make that. it's amazing. you kiddos are so lucky to get to curl up in it. if we had our own quilt we would curl up and never get out. either that or we would chew it up and mom would get mad. that would not be good, huh?
we'll definitely be at Asta's party. we are gonna find some good garlic bread cuz that's what you've gotta have when you eat italian - lots of garlic, lots of butter, and lots of crust! yummmm....
woofs!

We like the back almost as much as the front, the fabrics are so nice! Is your Dad just going to stand there all the time so you guys can admire it!???
Hi, Butchy and Snickers!

Does it really take that loooong to finish that quilt? I think it's really nice & oh my, all that hard work. Your mom is nice to let you sleep on her quilts. I bet they're nice & comfy!

OMG !!! This is not an easy job! Over here in Singapore, during the olden days , most of the parents will do this "blanket" for the kids, it takes lots & lots of time !
This is beautiful ! Good Job !

Wow, what a beautiful quilt...I'm jealous that you two get to warm up under it....don't think my Gram would let us cuddle in something that lovely....especially after rollin in the dirt....But we can dream about it anyway....

Wow, your mom is really good at quilting! Those quilts look beautiful, and they must be warm and cozy. Mind if I come over to snuggle up in them?

Oh Man...she lets you two sleep on that??? It's a work of art...!!!! How did she make all the different squares? That's amazing. Mumsie can barely sew a stuffie back together without whining!!!!!
It's really pretty...tell ur mom she's very very talented!!!
Lacie's on her way...she got done at Noah's today and left there early this morning...she should be gettin' to ur house by midnight to help with the patient.

Hi, Butchy and Snickers -
What a pretty quilt. Your Mama is very talented.
My (Hershey's) Mama is making a Christmas tablecloth and she still is not finished.
We hope you are having a good weekend!

Wow that must have taken a LOT of work to finish that quilt!! I'm sure your mom used a sewing machine, rather than stitching it by hand. And of course, that quilt must be for your use...what else would it be for?
T-man
Wow those quilts are absolutely awesome!!! HM is very impressed - she hasn't got an artistic bone in her body so she's awestruck at what your mum can do!!
River
That is stunning...AND you get to go on it!!!!!! Love A+A
The quilt is most beautiful! Your mama is so creative. And you get to sleep on it. All I'm allowed to sleep on is a throw from Wallmart. I better have a talk with my Mama, although she can't sew a stitch !!
PS... can't wait for the bandanas!!
You are making our mama jealous..haha
She loves the quilt. Your mom is real talented.
Love

I hope Max recovers fast from his surgeries. I bet he already feels better. that quilt is very cool! Mom has always wished she had learned to quilt. She loves quilts and is totally amazed at them.

Congratulations to your mama! She is so talented!
Your friend, Lenny
Tell your mama that quilt is bootiful! Lucky DOGS that you get to wrap up in it!
Goober love & smooches,

Woo! That is bee-woo-tiful! Your mom did a wonderful job. It looks very comfy-cozy. I see some serious snuggling in its future!
