Dare to Dresden...Day Five!

Well, it's finally here...
Today is the day!


 
 
Wow! Thank you so much Madame Sam and our
wonderful Cheerleader - Christine of
for such a fun DARE!!!!
 
Both ladies have been
REALLY AWESOME!!!
 
Well....
I had so much fun working on this project!
I wanted to do something that
reflected my personality...
 
My first project was close to my heart...
a tribute to my little bunny Cotton Patch.
 
I would dress her up every day if I could...
but I don't...I am not sure she would
like it as much as I would...
so, this will have to do!
 
 
I used a square dresden to highlight a little
dress for my little girl...
 
 
and of course, I am a Sweetwater fabric lover...

 
and what is a bunny without a little flower...
 
I had so much fun working on this!
I think little Cotton loves it too!
 
"Thank goodness you didn't do that to me in real life Mama..."
 
Then I wanted to make something for the
ranch house...and so I pulled out my
favorite Bali fabrics that my sweet man
bought me on one of his trips!
 
I know dresdens are a favorite flower
maker, but I wanted mine to be on
something that i love...and that is
and old fence...
 
 
 
There was a lot of hand work involved in this one...
but I loved every stitch of it!
 

 
The back really showed the stitching...
 
 
 
I haven't decided if this will be a table runner...
 
 
 
or a wall hanging...
But I do know this is going
to the ranch!!!
 
 
Please forgive the inside photo of this...
it was raining here all day!!!
 
But that's ok...
A closer look at the top looks like
a bit of sunny blue sky peeking over
the top of the fence!
 
 
Anyway...those are my contributions
for the Dare to Dresden...
 
 
And this is for one of you! This iron
stand is perfect to hang your year
around little wall hangings...
 
All you have to do is comment and
tell me what you would
hang on this little
beauty...
 
For a second chance, let me know if
you are a follower...
 
That's it!
 
I will choose a winner on Monday, Feb. 4th!!!
 
Please go by and visit
everyone else that will be
blogging their wonderful
Dare to Dresden creations TODAY TOO!!!
 
Enjoy!!!

    The bunny is adorable with the button nose and the flower. You are very, very creative. Your wall hanging/table runner is astounding, too! It certainly is a labor of love. Thank you for participating and sharing your creativity and labors of love with us. You certainly are an inspiration.

    You are very generous with your giveaway. If I'm lucky enough to win, I might have to Dare to Dresden and make a Dresden in colors to compliment my living room. I remodeled about a year ago and haven't made anything for it yet. I think it would be stunning to have a Dresden plate to accent my living room. I have an open floor plan so it could be seen from the kitchen and the dining room, too! I am a new follower.

    Very cute little Dresden bunny. I like the table runner too-to me it has to be a table runner. If I won the hanging rack I'd display different mini quilts for each holiday and season.

    A dresden dress....how cute and clever! The real bunny looks so huggable! Love the hanger.....I'd make monthly or seasonal hangings to put on it. Thanks so much!

    Good thing my daughter hasn't seen the bunny [the real one and the one in the dress] or I would be stopping everything to try to make one! :) I really like your table runner!!! As for the table stand, that would depend...dried flowers, mini quilts, cards, ornaments, paintings....

    I'm in love with that bunny! So cute....he's just adorable. And the "ranch quilt" is perfect for that venue as well. What would I hang on the metal stand - I have one that size and am looking for a second so I can make calendar numbers. I want to put it in my kitchen window and change the numbers each day. They should be big enough for me to read without my glasses! :) blessings, marlene

    I love the way you used the Dresden petals as a dress -- so clever! And your hanging/runner is really beautiful. I love the hand work. I have been looking for a hanger for the spare blocks I sometimes do and can't figure out how to use, lol.

  38. MommarockJanuary 30, 2013 at 7:02 AM

    Well, now having followed this blog hop and being so inspired.. I think I would hang some of the different blocks that I have always wanted to try.. like Cathedral Windows, Dresden, and then of course I would want to make different things for all the holidays! Yay what fun that would be! I really need to do some different things to increase my quilting skills so something like this would certainly push me to get going.

    Wow. What awesome Dresdens and that Bunny and dress is absolutely adorable. I LOVE it! The table runner is awesome too. Love them all. Thank you for showing us.

    If I were to win I would, in all honesty, have to make some smaller quilts to hang on there. Until I had those done however, I would use it to hang a sign that I stitched when I got my first embroidery machine in late 2003 during a class to learn my machine. The sign says "Vicki's Sewing Room".

    When I was a little girl, I received a cute, little white bunny for Easter. She had big pink ears so I named her Pinky. I think I might have been 6 or 7. I loved that bunny so much! And I would dress her up in my dolls clothes and wheel her around in my doll buggy! There is a old picture of me with my bunny in that old buggy. I adore your little Dresden bunny quilt! It reminds me of my long gone little Pinky Rabbit. I might have to borrow your idea! With big pink ears of course :)
