Dog Gone Cute

Welcome to the Dog Gone Cute quilt along blog hop!  Beginning September 1st, this quilt along blog hop will get underway and we would like to encourage you to quilt along. You can make as many or as few blocks as you like. Make a quilt or make a mini. Make a cushion. Make a set of placemats or a little puppy mug rug. A table runner. A bed runner! Make whatever your imagination leads you to make!




There are two styles of dogs. Ears up and Ears down.
There are two block sizes. Small finishes at 9" x 6" and Large finishes at 18" x 12"
There are two sizes of quilts. Mini finishes at 30" x 30" and Maxi finishes at 60" x 60".

Just to give you fair warning.... The dog blocks are addictive

Once you make one, you'll want to make a whole litter!


Here are some examples of how your Dog Gone Cute quilt could look!







A quilt along is always more fun than quilting alone. And a blog hop helps to spread the fun around! Want to get in on the fun? Then grab a button below and share it on your blog!


Sew Fresh Quilts


To participate only in the Quilt Along, tune in to Sew Fresh Quilts beginning on September 1st, when block and quilt size options, and details of fabric requirements will be shared. Or you can purchase the pattern and quilt along at your own pace. Each week following September 1st, instructions for the piecing of the various dog blocks will be given. In November, a linky party will be available to share your flickr and instagram photos or your Dog Gone Cute blog posts.


Participants of the Blog Hop portion will be placed on a schedule where we can come to visit you at your blog on your "Show It Off" day during October. Participants of the blog hop portion will be required to purchase a copy of the Dog Gone Cute quilt pattern, but will be reimbursed following the last day of the blog hop providing they do their part to help make the blog hop a success. The success of a blog hop depends on the participant's willingness to commit and follow through with their obligation:

  • to make something quilted using the Dog Gone Cute pattern
  • to blog about it in time for their day on the hop
  • to visit the other participants on their "Show It Off" day.  
The Dog Gone Cute quilt along will begin on September 1st. The details and a weekly schedule can be found on this Dog Gone Cute quilt along page. The Dog Gone Cute page tab is found just below the blog header. As each post is published the live links will be added to the schedule.
