Tink is an English Bulldog who we rescued. She is a year round shedder and full time drool-er. She has her own quilt and it is no longer fit to photograph. She is my full time assistant. She helps with all my quilt photography and is always putting her self in the center of the action in the sewing room.
This year I participated in a blog hop http://selinaquilts.blogspot.com/2013/07/stamp-on-it-blog-hop-my-turn.html where we designed quilted pieces that would represent a stamp if we designed it. I knew right from the beginning that I would do a stamp for Animal Rescue. A local artist, Andrew Cifelli, did a watercolor of Tink from the picture above and I made it the center of my stamp.
It is now hanging on the wall in the TV room. I had made it with the intention of it being a Mouse Pad
but I was out voted.
I am linking up to Pets on Quilts 2013, it's not too late for you to link up over at
LilyPad Quilting. You have until Aug. 17 to get that pet on a quilt or pet quilt and link up. Go direct to link HERE
Tink is beautiful! What a great assistant :-)
ReplyDeleteThe mouse pad turned wall hanging is wonderful!
I would want that hanging on the wall too (i'm a bit messy around the computer). So glad you joined in this year.
ReplyDeleteTink is wonderful! I love English Bulls, they have so much personality. Tinks picture definitely belongs on the wall.
ReplyDeleteI just love Tink's face...live and on your mouse pad/wall hanging!
ReplyDeleteI am placing my order for these now, but with dachshunds!
ReplyDeleteI looooooooooooooove that precious girl and would let her drool on me anytime! :)
ReplyDeleteYour mouse pad rocks. Yep, I would have it has a wall hanging too.
Hugs!
I hope you got it framed. That is just too adorable!
ReplyDeleteAnd...last year, I just looked at my friend Agnes' work...now...I am getting out of my box and visiting everyone who is participating...so far, only the flickr accounts am I having trouble leaving a comment to say, "Hello."
God Bless,

That wallhanging/mouse pad looks great...your dog is just adorable
ReplyDeleteThat is a great wallhanging.
ReplyDeleteWallhanging and dog are both awesome!
ReplyDeleteYour recreation of Tink as a postage stamp is so darned cute! You did a great job. He looks adorable, both in the photo and on fabric. Though I know he's already a winner in your book, I hope he's a winner for you on LilyPadQuilting.
ReplyDeleteTink is a beautiful girl! I love the postage stamp mini-quilt and I'm glad you didn't use it as a mouse pad. It's too special it get clicked on all day!
ReplyDeleteTink is a lucky dog. I bet he is proud of the "stamp" you made of him and now adorns your wall.
ReplyDeleteTink is a lovely lady and the watercolor just captured her perfectly.
ReplyDeleteKudos to you for rescuing your sweet pup! Love the stamp....super job at capturing her likeness! Thanks for partying with us at the show!
ReplyDeleteThat is adorable. Great job!
ReplyDeleteWOW!
