Dogs and Dots

It was love at first sight.

"Man's Best Friend"

Cindi was home in Memphis for Christmas. Her home and husband and dog are in Wyoming. But I hope that part of her will always call Memphis home. Since she needs fabrics for window treatments and pillows, I suggested that we go to Johnson's Fabrics in Bartlett. (Christi, Cindi and I were out for a day of shopping and lunch.)
It was love at first sight for me - dogs and dots - in neutral colors that I love. I bought 2 yards of each. The design is named "Man's Best Friend" by Prestigious Textiles; 100% cotton; printed in the UK. The dots measure 2 inches in diameter and the dog with the brown sweater measures about 6x5 inches. The background color is a warm off-white with yellow undertones.
I am formulating a plan for new pillows in the living room, recovering my 2 armless chairs with a coordinating fabric, painting the walls, etc.....This fabric find will lead to an all new space!


I hope to be sewing soon......

  1. Sorry, just saw these today! Completely forgot. Hannah gives a very enthusiastic thumbs up! She loves the fabric and could see the shapes of those dogs on her walls. Whatever you can do would be great and greatly appreciated. By the way, got the box of swimming gear a few days ago; so thank you! Love you.
