Off on a tangent

So much for my earlier post today about only quilting. I have been off on a tangent this afternoon.

My little dog spends quite a lot of time in front of the fire in winter, so needs an inside water bowl. After washing the floor and kicking the bowl AGAIN, I decided she needed a little canine "mug rug". With all of Peg's inspiration, it took no time at all.

When I was at The Home Patch this week, I bought a fat quarter of lovely soft flannel for a new heat pack, because Mr 10 is sick of me pinching his. I thought the red needed something more.

In the end the hearts and the birdy legs didn't make it, but it will keep me warm tonight.
