Transformations!
Here is our new little dog...please, please scroll down and see her picture when she first came to our door. After much coaxing and lovings...here she is all dolled up. Rosie (named by dear husband) appears to be a pure poodle! She is such a little doll. Housebroken. Good watch dog. Darling and affectionate. Hmmm, wonder why she was dumped?? She has made herself right at home, as you can see.
A package for Joan! Please see her blog at www.shelbystitcher.blogspot.com. We are both making spools, but hers are 5 inch and mine are 3.5 inch. So we swapped! How cool is that...and here are hers, ready to go.
These are many of the same fabrics...except Joan, I did not send you a lime green one, somehow I don't think that would fit into your thimbleberry palette!! LOL! I cut out...one million more. Well, maybe not quite, but enough to keep me sewing a long, long time.
When I get my very sophisticated, fancy container full...then I will say "Enough" and make the quilt.
Weight Watcher update....
I have lost right around 11 pounds now. I am in a smaller size! And that is good. Maybe I can actually (gulp) wear shorts this summer???
Have a super week!
Julie

Maybe her family lost their home, the news says many animals are getting dumped or just left behind in foreclosure homes. How sad. BUT good on you for taking her in, she'll pay you back in spades!

Your little Rosie is precious! Glad she found you! Congrats on weight loss!
Oh, Julie, if we could compare little dogs that got dumped.............Oh Lord, we've had a bunch!!! She's adorable, okay, but even cuter with her "puppy cut". God Bless you for fighting the good fight! Michele
Welcome to blogland Rosie! She is adorable and I am so pleased you decided to keep her. Love the spools and congratulations on dropping a dress size.
Oh my goodness, she looks like a totally different doggie! She is so cute with her ribbons. :-) I love your spools too! Great size! :-)
Little Rosie is so sweet! I'm so glad to hear that you still have her :)
Great scrappy spool blocks...look forward to seeing this project develop!
What a sweet addition to your home.
Congrats on losing 11 pounds and being in a smaller size!!! Woo-Hoo! You go girl!!!
Rosie is adorable! How lucky you were that she came into your lives. And congratulations on your weight loss! Time for me to get started on that too I think!
Rosie looks beautiful - and right at home! Good job on pounds lost!
I'm so happy to see that you are keeping that cute puppy! I have a black toy poodle (my first small dog) and he's the best dog of my life. I've heard that poodles adapt very quickly to a new home - they just want to be with you and snuggle.
Hi Julie
I just dropped by to say a big thankyou for the part you played in the beautiful quilts that Bluebird Lyn made for me

She's prettied up and perched on patchwork, so obviously she fits right in. Welcome, Rosie, to blogland!
Those spools are so tempting but so far I have been able to resist. Love yours! So fun to swap.
Congrats on working on your weight. It is always satisfying to go down a size.
Julie, love the spool swap, what a great idea. Your little Rosie looks completely different, and smaller. Wow. She is adorable. So cute. I have a pesky squirrel for you if you're up for another adoption! LOL Steph
Isn't she a cutie.
Love your quilts, love your blog, love your unbelievable adorable, Rosie, love that your DH coaxed her into your lives, but most of all love how amazing you are!!!
Yeah for Rosie finding a new home - one where she will surely be loved *s*
Loving those spool blocks - very cute!
Rosie, the pic of Rosie brought back memories of our little black toy poodle, Missette. What a sweetie, she was. Love her and spoil her. and congrats on the wt loss. why is it so easy to put on and hard to take off?!
Pink Hugs,
Dee
Oh my gosh these are so cute! I love your spools. I know just what a good feeling you're experiencing in that new size although, dear friend, after seeing you in person I really can't imagine much more loss is needed. I mean... just sayin' you're kinda small already.
And super SPECTACULAR congratulations on new addition. So cute she is. Yeah!!!

Rosie looks like a totally different dog--so pretty and healthy!
And congrats on your own transformation!
Hurray for you and your WW success!!! So happy for you...and proud, even though I've not had anything to do with your efforts. lol
How is your loving hubby doing?
