Cats n’ Dogs

Pam Brennan

I made this cute lap quilt for one of my Veterinarians who is retiring. This wonderful person cared for my pets for over 18 yrs. The years went by so quickly. Having a very limited time to get it done, I chose to sew rows of simple squares . I alternated 6” squares of assorted cats and dogs fabrics. The quilt measures 48” x 60” and will be a wonderful cover up. I’m so glad the quilt was well received and will be enjoyed for many years.F3AA990B-4D48-432D-98C2-F991F0BDE22BI used a light gray backing fabric featuring paw prints. I then quilted this using a thicker variegated thread, so that the all over hearts design would add more interest to the back.

I’m a work from home long arm quilter/quiltmaker.I learned to sew on my Nana’s treadle machine when I was around 8 yrs old but didn’t start making quilts til much later in life.I’m mostly self taught and have been making quilts for 30+ years.I enjoy making scrappy quilts and love working with batiks,but I have a fondness for antique reproduction fabrics as well.I tend to work with more traditional style block patterns but I put my own spin on them with use of fabric choices.I also do some pantograph quilting for people who want their tops finished into quilts.
