It’s all about Agnes

Agnes

Our JRT, Max, is firmly in love with our friend’s lurcher, Agnes.

It is rather sweet.

They have huge amounts of fun together and she is rare beautiful.

Not hard to see why he loves her so much.

Max doesn’t like being too far from Agnes (Whatever form she takes)

When we get a bit busy and struggle to juggle work, walks and making sure Max isn’t left on his own much, Agnes’s wonderful owners come to the rescue and kindly give Max access to their lovely home and all of Agnes’s favourite places there.

leggy and lovely

We are always happy for him to go to Agnes’s house. Apart from being with his best girl, we know he will get the very best care.

We can never show our appreciation enough, knowing he is safe, happy & very well cared for.

Beautiful Girl

Perhaps a canine cushion made in Agnes’s likeness?

I think it has been well received.

House Warming

Applique

Our lovely friends Caroline and Nat have moved away from North London to live by the coast in Hove with their little boy, Drew and Labrador, Bosley.

Bosley

It’s been a few months already and I feel really bad that their house warming present has taken this long to be sent.

Big Bad Bosley

After making a terrier cushion for ourselves and a couple of Daschund presents for other people, I decided that a labrador cushion in the likeness of Bosley would be a well received present. Drew and Bosley are firm friends (as are Max and Bosley) and Bosley is a very important and well loved member of their family.

Buddies

We have had Bosley staying with us at times when his family have had holidays or couldn’t take him with them and he is a very lovely boy. He is our favourite king of house guest.

Max and Bosley

We miss him as much as we miss Caroline, Nat and Drew.

canine cushions

JRT cushion on my sewing chair

I made a JRT cushion for our sofas a while back and have found a few minutes to finish the other ones that I cut out and prepared at the same time.

I love the striped linen daschund one & I’m really tempted to keep it but we don’t have a daschund (yet!) so it’s not necessary, really.

Silhouette appliqué is simple and effective and with a huge soft spot for dogs, these canine cushions are becoming my favorites.

My sis & friends have labs and we also have friends with a beautiful lurcher, all of which would make fabulous silhouettes.

They will have to go onto my huge the list of ‘to dos’.

Once I’ve finished the jungle chums blanket which is my next unfinished project to get done, I need to get on with a patchwork quilt requested of my by a very special girl what seems like a very long time ago.
