A Scottie quilt.

I saw a little picture in a quilting magazine we get of some cute little Scottie dogs and decided to make a small quilted wall hanging with a Scottie hand appliqued in the center. (I also embroidered a saying I liked along with some other embellishments...) I used some little blocks made with scraps from another quilt to frame it. We used to have a black and silver Miniature Schnauzer and this quilt reminds me of him. He looked a lot like a Scottie and was a good friend.

Here the quilt is basted, partially quilted, and ready for the binding.

Binding strips cut and pinned.

Sewing the strips together.

Then I ironed the long strip wrong sides together....

...and sewed it onto the quilt.

Trimming off the excess backing and batting.

Here I am hand sewing the binding over the edge.

Once the binding was sewn on, I finished quilting the blocks close to the edge of the quilt.

Then I added a hanging sleeve.

Quilt is finished!!
