Meet Bunny. I borrowed her for this event. She is a 10 month old, jet black Cocker Spaniel. That would make my category Puppy on a quilt.
Bunny's family are the wonderful folks who use to dog sit Tink when we went away. They were also the dear friends who took care of everything for us the day she passed.
One of the things they did was to use one of their quilts to wrap Tink in at the end. I didn't realize at the time that it was Bunny's quilt.
So when I finished this quilt it became Bunny's new quilt (apparently her chair too). She is a wonderful pup who we are allowed to borrow on a regular basis. We take every opportunity to spoil her to pieces.
Pictures just don't do her justice. She really has the most beautiful eyes, would you believe, they are black ;-}
So here is the link to get you back to the linky party so you can check out everyone who is participating in this super fun event.

What a sweet model and a beautiful quilt.
ReplyDeleteOh, what a sweet and cuddly model and how lovely that she shared her quilt. Yes, she deserved a new one.
ReplyDeleteA very sweet story, Selina. I'm sure it was quite heartwarming for you to work on finishing this beautiful quilt knowing who it was going for and for the reason it is so well deserved.
ReplyDeleteThat is such a sweet story about wrapping Tink up in their quilt and helping you during such a tough time. I loved seeing photos of Tink and thought he had just the sweetest face. How nice of your friends to let you borrow Bunny once in awhile. Love the new quilt!
ReplyDeleteThat's a peachy pup.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet puppy! Bunny looks like she loves her quilt....
ReplyDeleteYou are puppy aunt to a beautiful dog!
ReplyDeleteAwww love cocker spaniels! I might be partial because our dog is 1/2 cocker, but I have always thought they were the sweetest! So hard to capture their true cuteness - I agree!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful story and a great quilt for such a giving pup! Bunny is adorable and looks like a very helpful healing aide.
ReplyDeleteSweet Bunny and wonderful neighbors! Bunny is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteSo nice to have a cuddly baby to fill that chair and a place in your heart. You brought tears to my eyes when I read about Tink being wrapped in a quilt.
ReplyDeleteAdorable bunny and quilt.
ReplyDeleteBunny is so adorable and sweet and deserved a new quilt for sure.
ReplyDeleteBlack dogs are so difficult to photograph well, but Bunny really does look very at home on the quilt :)
ReplyDeleteGod Bless You for being sew generous!!!
