Will Jack be a Daddy?

Well, hopefully, this little beauty pictured above will be the mother of Jack's children very soon. She and Jack "got to know one another" this morning and decided they would like to create a family. Her name is Sydney and she is from Winthrop, Maine. She is a sweetie. Jack did not take long to fall in love.

Once she does have a litter of pups, we will have the first pick of the litter. This is very exciting for us. Jack is the best dog we have ever had, and we are so pleased to be able to perpetuate his breed and his character through offspring. We will keep you posted.

Love,
Jodi

Still Under the Weather.

We are still feeling ill here ... and though the snow outside is absolutely gorgeous, it is most unwanted (at least by me). However, this is perfect quilting weather! I continue to work on my Spring quilt project and I really like how it is turning out. However, I am already experiencing some project infidelity .... I just received some new fabric in the mail for my pirate-loving family and am anxious to begin using it ...

It is titled, "Treasure Island", and is an Alexander Henry print. The handsome pirate at top-center certainly resembles a certain Mr. Capt. Jack Sparrow, so Meaghan will be very pleased with whatever I use it for. I purchased 4 yards of it from Rainbow's End Fabrics on Ebay at the bargain price of $23.07 (including shipping). I think I will use it to make matching bed quilts for Meg & Isaac as well as a tote for each.


Well, off for some rest now as we need to be up early to meet the "Aussie" female that intends to mate with our Jack tomorrow! Won't Jack be pleasantly surprised :)

Love,
Jodi
