Dog Sayings
Occasionally, there are really fun sayings related to our pets. Among our favorites is the two-sided needlepoint bone saying "Feed the Dog/Dog Fed. and its companion "Feed the Cat/Cat is Fed". And if you have a pet like our Lily who constantly lies about being fed, you understand how valuable the sign can be.
In addition, I thought these signs would also be great for the dog lovers/owners in your life. The Sit, Stay, Drink can actually be painted with your particular breed. I chose the black lab since labs are the most popular dog in the United States.
Recently, Warning Dog Doesn't Know Sit! has appeared on T-shirts and the like. But I though a needlepoint would add to the fun. Of course, I can see this needlepoint embellished with bone shaped buttons. You could also experiment with the border. You could couch down Frosty Rays to give is some pizazz. This canvas is on #13 mesh.
And for those of us who feel that our daily life is dedicated to the dog (or dogs), there is the To-Do List.
All of these canvases are perfect for the novice stitcher since they have blocks of color.
