It sure looks like it since Sue of Quilt Notes named the quilt My Poopy Puppy. She explains it was in response to a *Quilting Arts Magazine reader challenge about pet peeves. Hers is dog owners not scooping up their dog’s poop in a public place we all must share, like a dog park. Go HERE to learn more.
*This quilt appeared in the Dec 2011/Jan 2012 issue of Quilting Arts Magazine.

I recently treated myself to “The Christmas Quilt / The New Year’s Quilt” by Jennifer Chiaverini for the upcoming holiday season. As a fan of the Elm Creek Quilts series, I couldn’t resist diving into this heartwarming tale of Christmas traditions and family legacies.
The anticipation of exploring the holiday festivities at Elm Creek Manor is palpable, especially with Sylvia Bergstrom Compson, the Master Quilter, at the helm. Sarah McClure’s eagerness to bring Christmas cheer to the manor adds an extra layer of excitement as she uncovers a curious Christmas quilt with a rich history spanning generations.
As I eagerly await immersing myself in this delightful narrative, I’m already captivated by the promise of cherished memories, family bonds, and the timeless traditions that have endured through the years. With each page promising glimpses into the past and the present, I’m bracing myself for a heartwarming journey filled with love, hope, and the spirit of giving.
Being a part of the Elm Creek Quilts series has been a joyous experience, and I can’t wait to unwrap the magic of “The Christmas Quilt / The New Year’s Quilt” this holiday season. So, no spoilers, please—let the enchanting tale unfold as I cozy up with this beloved series once again.
Please make sure not to leave me any spoilers as I haven’t read it yet.
Thanks for posting my “Poopy Puppy” quilt. I checked my blog stats yesterday and couldn’t figure out why I had so many views! This challenge asked us to quilt one of our pet peeves. It was so hard to choose one — people who don’t clean up after their pets, people who throw cigarette butts and trash out the window, people who park in front of the grocery store and block traffic … and that’s all before 10:00 AM!!!!
My pleasure Sue. I think your quilt is hilarious! I share every one of your pet peeves. Warmly, Scarlett
