There was a "blog hop" that I watched for the entire run. I loved the
Dog Gone Cute block but didn't know if I wanted to try it. When a friend asked me to make a baby quilt in neutrals, that was all the push I needed. I gathered fabrics in neutrals (just some scraps.) and I cut and sewed it.
How stinkin' cute is this!
I confess that the eyes are not according to the pattern, The eye on the left of the block was designed to be closer to the center.
I made a mis .....errr I changed it, using artistic license. This iis the large block that finishes at 18 by 12 inches. There are cutting instructions also for a 9" by 6" small block.
Since the quilt is for a baby girl we decided not to use it. Instead, I need to find a bunny or a kitten-preferably a bunny.
I must say thanks to "
Sew Fresh Quilts" for providing this pattern free on her blog. There are actually eight different block options so you can make a whole litter of these.

I have seen these blocks on a few different blogs I follow. All are so cute! I may need to go bookmark this pattern.
I'm using that pattern to make a pillow for a local dog rescue to auction off. I am tweaking it to look like a certain dog they found in horrible condition and restored to health. I'll probably make more of these because they are really cute!
too cute
Very cute. You couldn't resist, either, I see!
Your "artistic license" gave it a I-might-have-chewed-the-couch kind of look...love it!
Love the pup in pastels - such adorable character to it.

Susie (I love "artistic license " moments!)
So dog gone cute! Glad to see that you joined in and wanted to make a cute puppy block, too Gene. Your artistic license has added personality to this pup. Love the fabrics you chose!
Just to be encouraging here, I love the idea of puppies for baby girl's quilt! I love that you chose a light floral to give fur texture! Maby yours would make a great little travel pillow! I hope you make and share more of these Dog Gone Cute little guys or girls!!!
I love the idea of puppies in a girls quilt as well. I love the flowery neutral fabrics.
