Start saving those scraps (min 2 1/2" square) - lots of them - and paper otherwise destined for the orange/pink sack (magazines, printer paper and used envelopes will do).

Coming up
Due to popular demand, this will be our next project, probably starting in May, giving everyone time to finish their bag and/or cushion.
The technique used here is English Paper Piecing (EPP), that is hand piecing over papers. This 'Scottie Dog' is made from 2" squares so stands about 14" tall. The gusset is two squares wide so he's wide enough to stand up on his own. Add some weight (e.g. sand) and make a doorstop. Make from smaller squares and you've got yourself a puppy!

I'm really looking forward to making him. I've ordered the retro charm pack from Cotton Patch and I'll cut into quarters. Can't wait! Gemma.
