this is where we started-
And this is where we are now!
In between, I tried a giant bow, and I tried some embroidery to highlight the mouth. It looks like some scribbling.
I moved the bow to the side-
How about a flower?
Maybe with some leaves?
That was definitely too much ruffles for one pug. How about a simpler flower-
Nope, back to bows-
Finally I decided that one small bow was just right. Also I restitched the mouth, over the black, with a warm gray so you can see the facial features (not in this photo but notice in photo #2). Much better- now I am satisfied.
And here she is, enjoying a beautiful day!
Perfect!
The audition process is always interesting. I make crazy quilts; there are days I thrive on those kind of design decisions and other days ya just gotta walk away. I think you’ve nailed it here!
Good job! How fun to be a part of the evolution of this happy little dog girl.
Certainly a Parisian pug which ever kind of hat she’s wearing!
My choice would be the rufflely flower with the leaves ~ she is way too cute!
She is just perfect now!!
Oh yes! I think the final mouth is just right! She’s cute as a button!
Hi Mimi! Your dogs are awesome! Ilove them!
