Handsome Gordon

This is one of my raw edge appliqué art quilts that I made as a gift. Gordon has the most amazing smile and when I saw this photo I knew that I wanted to make this. There are over 120,000 stitches in the thread work. I used Aurifil thread exclusively.

It was juried into the 2023 Emotions exhibition and publication and earned an Honourable Mention in 2023 Howl, Art of Dogs, International juried art exhibition.

I apologize for not posting much lately. It just seems that there are not enough hours in the day.

Here is a recent finish. Although I’ve completed 4 textile portraits of my Bernese Mountain Dog I have never done one of my Golden Retriever. There are over 132,000 stitches and 18 different thread colours (primarily Aurifil) in the decorative free motion quilting.
