Well, it’s been over a week since my last post, but there is a good reason for my lack of communication. I also haven’t been commenting much on anyone’s blogs either and for that I apologize. Just as What’s Her Name from Dachsies With Moxie was chained to her sewing machine until she finished the Fearless Five Memory quilt top I too had been chained to my sewing machine until it was done being quilted.
I am happy to report that the quilt is done and packaged to be shipped tomorrow morning. Sorry no pictures yet as we all want Sandra and her family to see the finished product before we let the rest of the world in on its beauty. I will fill you in on my part of the process after I get the all clear that the delivery has been completed. Until then you will just have to take my word for it that the quilt truly is a labor of love from all of us.
I have a few blogging things to catch up on in the next week. Nina won a $50 gift certificate to Mr. Chewy from Wyatt and will be doing a review of her treats soon. I also was given an award that needs to be acknowledged and Nina was tagged by the Dachsies With Moxie and will be answering those questions soon.
In the mean time a few of you have placed orders for project bags so I will be contacting you for details and get working on them soon. Word has it that a few of them that I sent to Michigan have already sold. I’m hoping they will sell out of them soon so I will have more work to do.
I almost forgot to thank Puddles and her mom for including a nice bag of treats for Nina when they sent their fabric square to be added to the quilt. She loves them. Sorry there are no pictures to show just how much she enjoys them since Nina runs and hides anytime she sees the camera come out. I keep trying to figure out how to sneak up on her with the camera, but so far I have not been successful. If any of you have any suggestions on how to train a 14-year-old dog who is afraid of flashing lights to accept a camera in her face then let me know.
We can’t wait to see the finished quilt. Mom promised us she would find us some fabric to contribute and then the shingles hit and it never happened. We just bet it is awesome.

Hey… cut a hole in a snack bag.. put the flashy beast in and make a finger button hole so you can go CLICK.. Nina will never suspect what you have.
THANKS AGAIN… you are one of the gooooooood ones!!
I have been thinking of you, but didn’t want to disturb you. Glad you got it done.
I just know the quilt is just beautiful. Truly a labor of love and something Sandra will cherish forever.
:o)
I’d been thinking about the quilt this week but I think it’s a great idea that Sandra gets to see it first.
Hope all the love that went into it helps her to heal.
Love and licks, Winnie

I’m so bummed! I created a quilt square but never got off my duff to get it sent in and now it’s too late. 😦 no one to blame but myself though. Boo!
I bet it’s beautiful and I can’t wait to see it! As for getting her used to flash, take a bunch of pictures of her without the flash then introduce the flash in daylight with lots of treats and praise

I absolutely can’t wait to see the finished quilt!!! Thank you so much!
I didn’t know Nina was 14. I am about 14-15, too! In terms of the camera, I finally gave up and just let my assistant take her silly pictures. Treats help!
Your pal, Pip
