Winter Camo

Hi everyone!  As I mentioned yesterday, in addition to the quilting I've been doing, I also changed gears and made new collars and leashes for the girls!  We decided to go for matching collars & leashes this time - something I haven't done before.  Let's hope it doesn't get too confusing.

The webbing I chose is "Winter Camouflage" - white, grey, and black, with a bit of a sheen to it. Here it is, waiting for me to dig in:

Oh. And Maggie in the background. There's a good chance she was playing "Let's Not Let Cammie Get Down The Stairs". What can I say? Sometimes she wins, sometimes Cammie wins.

I forgot to order the double slides when I ordered the webbing and other hardware, but just happened to have a couple spares. Whew. I started with the collars:

For something this heavy, I use a combination of clothespins ...

... and masking tape to hold everything in place.  Also a #90 needle, my #8 Denim Foot, and my leveling bars.  I love that my Bernina can handle things like this!

I got the collars done pretty quickly and moved on to the leashes:

I just really love this pattern and color on the girls!

Maggie and Cam, looking VERY cool!

Thanks so much for reading!  More to come again soon!
