My 'Pets on Quilt Show 2015' entry

Lily Pad Quilting's annual Pets on Quilt Show 2015 has begun and 'Road to Oklahoma' is my entry.....
....but......
....not....
....this side.....

..... THIS side is my entry.....

 ..... in the category Animal-theme Quilt because of this lovely woodland deer scene fabric.  My official entry page can be found here.

For those who may be new readers, I am from Alabama, with family roots that run deep in Oklahoma history as my family, on my mother's side, were a part of the Oklahoma Land Rush.  Beloved family members still live in Oklahoma and I made this quilt for my sweet cousin Clifford as a gift of gratitude for being oh-so-sweet to me when I was a little girl and would visit out there.  He'd put everything aside to play with me.  Always such fun!!!  My husband planned a trip to Oklahoma last October 2014 just so I could personally give this quilt to Clifford, who you see with me, below.  This quilt was pieced using the 'Road to Oklahoma' block for the front, and the woodland deer scene fabric on the back because Clifford loves deer so...... so much in fact, that when he opened the package, he first thought the deer scene was the front!   And ya' know.... that's okay with me. 

I've included the links for those who are new, who may want to read the entire story of this quilt, because part of making a quilt..... is telling its story.

And *sigh*, no entry with cute little Towa this year.  Try as I might, I just could not get her to pose all cute-like on 'Dreaming of Spring'.  You know how these diva models can be...... and of course she's not spoiled.... and yes she has her own pink baby blanket.  :)
