Dwight the Deer

Dwight the Deer is finally finished and in his new home.  He was the one thing that I didn't get done for Christmas.  Lydia and I decided that he would be a great Christmas present for Aunt Brenda and Uncle Dave.  The week before Christmas my longarm machine was out of commission.  I ran over a quilting ruler and had to re-time my machine.  I never did that before (yes, I was a little sick about it), and it took me a couple of days to get the problem resolved.  So instead of being a Christmas present, Dwight was a New Year's Day present.

The pattern for Dwight The Deer is designed by Elizabeth Hartman.  She has many pieced animal patterns.  I have a lot of fun making them because they aren't typical patchwork.  You cut up various sizes of triangles and rectangles - lots of them, and you HAVE TO FOLLOW DIRECTIONS very well.  I find them to be a fun little challenge.  I have some of Elizabeth Hartman's other animals in the works, too, and I love them all.

Over the years Uncle Dave has hunted many deer and has given us lots of venison for our freezer.  So we got to give him a deer for a change.  I think this one will look good in their beautiful home.

It's Finish It Up Friday over at Crazy Mom Quilts where I'll be linking up.  Thanks for stopping by.  I'm looking forward to a weekend full of sewing in my nice warm house.  I wish the same for you, too!
