Foster Dog #15 - Jak



This is a photo of Jak, who was our 15th foster dog. Jak is a pure bred dalmatian, and because of his beautiful pedigree he was in high demand and was adopted by his new family very quickly.

Foster Dog #14 - Turtle








Here is our current foster dog Turtle. Not sure if she was named on purpose, but she is really shy and hardly sticks her head out. However, she is very sweet and is responding well to attention from both people and her foster dog sister Honey, who is teaching her by example how to walk on a lead and sit before being fed. Turtle has such a lovely nature, I would be surprised if she doesn't find her new permanent home soon.

This is Bella, who is our 13th foster dog. She is a 7 month old staffy. Not good as posing for photos, but she is a lovely looking dog with a glossy black coat.

Quilt 5 - Double Wedding Ring quilt







I made this quilt for my brother's wedding on 10 May 2008. It's a traditional double wedding ring quilt and the pattern includes lots of symbolism: the two colours represent the two individuals getting married, the various shades symbolise the changing state of married life, and the intertwined circles resemble wedding rings.



This quilt was completely hand-stitched.

This is Sally, who just arrived today. She's about 6 months old, some sort of retriever mix. A very sweet dog who is a delight to look after

Foster Dog #11 - Laura


We have just looked after our 11th foster dog - Laura. She was 4 months old and we're told she is an Australian Shepherd cross? We had Laura for less than 24 hours before she found a new home with a lovely family.
