This Saturday in your weekly new post, we’ll be featuring the second set of four fabulous students from my recent October 2024 Live Online Class. Three out the four were working on dog portraits, so I thought it made sense to show off a few other wonderful student dogs, such as Shannon Conley’s begoggled “Missy” (above).
Today’s Throwback Thursday post, “Three-Dog Nights, and a Few Cats,” seemed particularly appropriate as we here in the northern hemisphere head into the season where having a dog or two (or three) in bed at night seems like an attractive idea.
So grab a warm cuppa and get comfy with the pack of adorable fur-folks linked below!
A reminder that all my 2025 fabric collage classes—both in-person and online—are scheduled and open for registration. Click the link below for more information, including dates, fees, and descriptions.
