Design Source - Description | Three small pictures were alterred by removing collars, bows and blue shiny or red eyes. The pictures of the rescued dogs were printed on white cotton fabric. Three layers of trapunto were used for the nose, muzzle and then the remaining quilts. Thread painting was used to accentuate the fur. A background of printed poems (public domain) in black with white script describing dogs was ironed on Peltex. A padded frame on Peltex was placed over the backing. The small pictures can be lifted to read the poems. On the back of the framed quilt is information about nine dogs that luckily found their way to the these special people. The three dogs shown are: the top one, Jackie, was adoped from a shelter, the middle dog, Ruthie, was given away after one night home and the bottom one, Josie, was found abandoned in some weeds. God smiles on those who care for animals. |
