A Dog's Life - Pattern Set

The quilt is approx. size 46" x 42"(117cm x 106cm) is a 4 part pattern set.

This fun quilt introduces some of Hugo's new dog friends. Jet (the black dog) belongs to one of Lynette's sons, Beau the brown Labrador belongs to her mum and dad and Rosie, a very much loved poodle from Lynette's past. Lynette is excited about how this quilt looks, designed with animal lovers in mind I have used subtle dirty colours which would also make it ideal for a boy. Lynette has combined fusible appliqué, simple embroidery, piecing and of course some of her favourite yo-yo's.

Patterns only, set of 4.
