Quilted Cupcake Episode 37 Show Notes: Wonky Quilting Ideas and Tips

I'm finally back from my trip - wanted to post the Show Notes for Podcast Episode 37  on Wonky Quilting (at bottom of this post). 

I started a new Flickr Group: Pets on Projects  - this is the group where you can post pictures of your pets enjoying your handmade creations - that is, adding themselves to the photos you're trying to take of your crafty projects.  Here are a few that are in the group:

It started with a few of my Dusty on projects photos:



Now, there are 48 pictures in the pool.  Here's Wiener on a Wiener by Regiana

Runner Ducks shows us that kitties love quilts, too


Here's a link to one of my favorites by Louise as I have so many like it.  Do you have any you'd like to add?  Please feel free - jump over to the Flickr group and go for it!  These pics just make me smile!

That link made me laugh. I stalked my dogs for a month trying to get good pictures to enter in the Pets on Quilts show. I went right over and joined the group, I'll go back later and share my babies. Thanks.
