Meet girl 3, my first Golden Girl.
She is very Blonde, actually. It seems she can't get enough of the teddy I found in an OP shop some months back. I must remember that offering a teddy is a great way to make a new friend :) I just handed her the teddy and she posed like a calendar model all by herself with no help from me.
She doesn't pay much attention to the camera or the flash. She is trained to ignore distractions because she is a real working girl. She has passed all of her training and only has a couple more months of training to go. Well done, Golden Girl!
She is nearly 6 kg larger than girl 2 but still lean and healthy. (girl 2 was a prem )
She is definitely a cuddly girl. I have given heaps of tummy rubs and ear scratches already. Sweet....
See how she has her back half flattened out.....
Remember how girl 2 rested with her front paws in a rather odd position?
Well ok then, whatever you like.
The girl leaves for work in the am, so today while she is away, I have been going through my fabric
stash. For current projects, I need Christmas fabric (not looking good for that), baby fabric, (plenty, just need to decide what), and white, navy and lime.
I won't be using ALL of these, but this is what I pulled on my first fabric pass through. I have a rather healthy fat quarter stash so I rarely need to shop outside my sewing room when I want to make something. This will be a
Whirlygig quilt (as it is called in blogland), but mine will be renamed "Happy Dance Quilt". Every time I see one of those quilts, I always think it looks like a happy dance more than a whirlygig :)
Last year, I had x-rays done and they gave me the films. I am using them to make templates for myself and dear De. These templates are for a block starting at 6 inches. Can't wait to see how it turns out as this pattern is one I have never tried before (even though I have been quilting since 1973) LOL. Hope your day is good too! xx debbie
awwh she is a cutie Debbie,cant wait to see your quilt made.xx
ReplyDeletedear shez, she is a gorgeous girl and so interesting to watch...she pays close attention to the tv at times and then sniffs around and under it hmmm...xx debbie
