A friend made this for me for Christmas a couple of years ago. She paper pieced the Daisy dog and it became the top to a great box to store applique stuff in. The funny thing about this -- a scheme was hatched to get me to post a picture of Daisy (wasn't hard!) so they could check out her coloring. I love my Daisy box! Oh, she also gave me a little statue of a skunk - to memorialize Daisy getting skunked NINE times that year! You'd a-thunk the blasted dog would have figured it out after the first time or two!
Still fighting the allergies. I rubbed my eyes today so much that I actually had one of them a bit swollen. Stopped tonight and bought some OTC allergy stuff. Hope it works!
My gratitude today is a new cinnamon apple candle.
Nine skunk attacks? Uggh, was it the same skunk, or a mom teaching her baby skunks - here, watch, this is what you do to the little dog.... lol
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to be blessed with such a special friend!
ReplyDeleteOh, this is a darling Daisy!
ReplyDeleteMy mom thinks she has a cold -- maybe it is allergies?

Daisy dog quilt is so cute! That poor baby tangling with a skunk that many times. No one told her that those "black kitties with white stripes" were NOT her friend's, I guess.
ReplyDeleteThe spring runner is very pretty as well.
Wonderful friends you have!
What a beautiful Daisy Dog Box top!!
ReplyDeleteLooks just like her..*VBS*
You know, being they were orginally bred to go into badger holes, she might have thought those skunks were badgers in discuise..*G*
Poor baby" for your sad eyes..mine are totally over the edge with allergies lately too. Hope the stuff helps.
So skunks really do stink? Cute quilt and very nice friend :-)
ReplyDeleteDo skunks stink? Ewwww!!
ReplyDeleteEvery time I start thinking how smart Daisy is, I remember the year of the skunks! Dumb dumb dog!!
What a wonderful gift - and sneeky way to get Daisy's coloring right. I have a "skunk cure" around here somewhere - will have to take a look and post it.
ReplyDeleteAllergy season has not hit yet in the northern climes, but it is just around the corner.
Cheers!
