Hi there Mary, sure hope the storm damage did not affect your house also.
The brindle pup looks like a Phil to me.
Would you happen to still have the string star quilt piece done in 2014? The one the cat threw up on? I’m trying to find examples of that combination before making my own.
Sure hope you feel 100% again soon. Do take care. San / Gypsy Quilter Designs
San – tell me more about the quilt piece – I can’t think what it is. I actually like Phil – a lot!
Minick and Simpson did a lemoyne star in which they used white string piecing to create the star and set it in a blue background.
If I recall correctly, you made just one block and quilted it.
I tried to find it again on your blog, but photos will not come up for me.
Perhaps you sold it after closing the shop. If you do happen to find it, perhaps you could post it on the blog. If not, no worries.
I went to school with a Phillip Donatello who was tall, thin, and had beautiful dark hair. Your sweet brindle pup looks like he’ll be tall and thin also.
Happy sewing, San / Gypsy Quilter Designs
San – oh, yes! I do remember that I made one block – if I come cross it, I’ll post it.
I’d do another test, Mary. Lots are getting rebound Covid. Your Dr. can tell you if you’d be contagious or not, if it’s positive. Take care!
I think that most of the “rebounders” had taken Paxlovid. Not sure if you, Mary, took that anti-viral drug or not.
Mary – I am seeing the podiatrist tomorrow – maybe I could be tested there at the clinic. I will ask.
A person can get COVID more than one time.
Its such a cute pup. I think his name aught to be Biggers. He has such big ears, hence the name Biggers. i have named my animals something that reminds me of them. A one eyed cat named Blinker, a orange and white cat OB for orange boy, Hence the name Obie. A stay that it took a year to become friend with that stared at us through the door, her name became Dorie, a very small full grown female we call her Elkie, which started out to be LK for little kitty. I think a animal should make us think of their traits. glad to read about you and your adventures.
Nancy – I love your creativity with names!
I love the creative names you’ve chosen! Makes me smile and chuckle!
Hi Mary,
I’ll be in Garner from 9/14 (arrival day) & leaving in 9/21. Could I pick up,a book from you then?
Check is in the mail for your new book, SO excited!!!!
Phil sounds like a perfect name, your filling in the gap to his permanent home.
Get tested, listen to your body and rest and push the fluids.
Blessings to you ~
Hi Mary!
I’m very sorry you are so ill again and the cough just wears you down terribly. I would get tested again, if I were you.
It seems to me that the pup should be called “Pup”! You write that often, when telling about him. Pup is a great name for a dog that’s going to love you forever!
I am in the hospital so missed donating to the Patriot’s fund raiser. BUT I am being released tomorrow and told my husband we need to mail off our donation fast! We will get it done! You ARE a ROCK STAR for all the donations you help raise! I am a big fan of Mary the Rock Star!
Please get feeling better!
Marylou – I think I’ve decided to call him Keeper – he’ll always be “pup” to me tho. It can be his nickname.
Great name! He definitely is a Keeper! ❤️
My check for the book goes in the mail tomorrow. Can’t wait to see all the gorgeous quilts in this one in the Country Threads new, lighter pallet! 👍❤️
