Do you remember this quilt and the hole I had that I was agonsing over?
People suggested that I must have mice, moths, or silverfish in my fabric drawers. I haven't seen any of those.
I tried adding decorative stitching, but even with Nina the Bernina and her 9mm wide stitch capability, it wasn't quite cutting it.
Then I found THIS in my fabric drawer.
Anyway, I ended up following Rachel's advice and appliquing a few random letters to hide the hole and not make it look like I was hiding the hole...
Phew! And trying out the different stitches on Nina to try and tie in with the letters was fun. See all those cute little hearts?!
But FINALLY it's FINISHED!!!
and got comfortable...
:)
All I can say is
Now time to linky up your finishes!

Very cute quilt but the dogs steal the show!
I think that's a great solution. I have a dog who chews quilts, and so does my daughter! Luckily, most dogs don't. Love your little helpers.
They are SO cute and fabric theft...well, she has good taste. LOL. The quilt looks awesome!!!

I love your quilt, those letters worked wonderfully to hide the holes! I'm sure you couldn't stay mad at those pups for long.
