The final Part of the EPP Dog Sew-along

[@alisoneyers2450]

Yours is the first video to show removal of papers. Thank you. Others must just assume easy. Not so when the papers look to be fixed in and then stitched on. You are a star. Xx

[@PauiKu]

I did it! It was so therapeutic for me! It took me two days, I'had never hand-sewn an entire project, it was so enjoyable! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and talent.

[@vickisromovski4979]

Love the dog! Thank you! You stitches are beautiful😊

[@LizStevens-o6v]

I've watched this doggie being made twice & so enjoyed learning how to make one. Loved your indigo one & all the others you showed. Thanks Kate

[@debolson4103]

Love this , Ive seen this before but didn’t realize it was paper pieced. What a great baby gift! I use a chopstick for poking out the corners and even pushing the stuffing in the corners, works great. You are a wonderful teacher 😀

[@marylouisesmith5899]

I have made two of these while on vacation. I have a little, clear toiletry bag that everything fits into and packs in my suitcase. I can sit by the pool and just sew along. It has taken me two weeks both times to get the puppy sewn but doing this keeps my hands busy. My Grandson loves his puppy and now he has a new one at my house. Great way to use up scraps.

[@DeniseLedbetter-v6w]

This was so much fun to watch! It is 2024 and I said in an earlier post that I will have to start projects like this as it is late fall.

[@annettewhitbeck6072]

There are a lot of tutorials on KZbin but they don't have Kate.☺ Your dog is so charming.

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

ahhh - you sweetheart! xxx

[@Charlie-cz3jh]

Thanks for sharing everyone's dogs. They are all SO pretty🥰

[@hello_from_nic]

Oh Kate, I am so intrigued. I haven ever worked with fabric yet I am really motivated to try it. Thank you so much for your inspiration. I might alter it to become a pony, we will see.

[@carolcollinson8245]

Thank you for a wonderful series of tutorials. I have sat and made lots of notes

[@teodenehenderson7882]

Thank you I now have two dogs ready for the Christmas Fayre.

[@laurasmith3293]

Really enjoyed creating my little dog. I also tried one on my machine but the EPP version was far better. Thanks Kate

[@ParsnipsMum1]

That was a great little series on paper piecing, I've really enjoyed it. Never mind if a tutorial already exists on KZbin, it's not what you do, it's HOW you do it. When I'm learning something new I seem to watch hours and hours of tutorials on the same thing. Possibly longer than the craft itself takes 😆

[@bettys3937]

I just started making the squares this morning , I’m pleased to see the other dogs , it’s fun , thankyou

[@charlotterogers7303]

So cute. I love the colors😊

[@barbaradugan7108]

Hi Kate!!! Your stuffed dog turned out so cute!!! Boy, all the stuffed dogs presented are just darling!!! Stay warm!

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

it's trying to snow now sadly xxx

[@cathysilva5435]

That tacking stitch is very cleaver. Never thought about that.

[@margaretberryman6260]

Oh wow. They're all so good!

[@veemcg3682]

I've really enjoyed following these patchwork doggie tutorial videos even though I've seen patchwork before. Thank you so much for these lovely videos Kate. I don't care how many are on you tube I'm going to search out your journal making video and follow it next.

[@SimpLeeBeth]

Thank you for sharing everyone else's projects! I 💗💓💗 Spot!!! 🤣

[@junimondin]

Right now i am beginning my first Patchwork dog. Thanks a lot for your tutorials, i like spending some time with you. Greetings from Bavaria and have a good time.

[@donnabennett5106]

Love this Beautiful Dog Kate

[@nywvblue]

What a gorgeous treasure for the lucky recipient! I think handmade should be actually be called heartmade.

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

I love that! xxx

[@alisoneyers2450]

I’d forgotten all about Kapok. Again thank you. Xx

[@dianareddell1496]

Loved this tutorial! I can’t wait to try this with bits of fabric from my beloved Mother’s clothes for my sisters and me. 😍

[@maribelishooked4378]

So adorable.

[@hazeluzzell]

This is the only tutorial I have found that does it the way I was taught!

[@macarmencastillopadilla8673]

Guay que bonito❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@SandraOranje]

I really enjoyed making this. Also getting me back into sewing and patchwork. Happy with my dog and even my mom loved it. She had no idea what I was making. What a beautiful and colorful dogs everybody made. 👍💕 Thanks for this fun tutorial Kate. 💕xxxxx

[@suedale1865]

I’m back tracking on previous pod casts loving every one including & especially clearing out drawers 💕💖💙

[@sandramyer7081]

Charming and great for kids ds!

[@lorettahenderson8979]

Thank you Kate ❤

[@mariecurrie7657]

Just wonderful Kate! You've made it look easy, but we'll see how I get on when I get my hands back on my fabrics. LOL If it resembles a dog I'll be thrilled. Love all the dogs at the end of the video. Well done to everyone 🐕

[@playme129]

Lovely dog. Found these videos just in time for a Christmas baby on the way! However, the bib tutorial was a day late. Finished the last bib on a Sunday; watched you make a bib on Monday. I had put ties on each of nine bibs. But you, Kate, used snaps. Much better than the Velcro called for in my pattern. Great idea. Love your sewing and gardening videoes. Enjoy just listening to you chat about everything. Virginia in Ohio

[@samcross8373]

I have never tried anything like this but have watched all the episodes and think I may try it but journal first that is much more my style Thanks Kate

[@ToriLynnH]

So sweet. Thank you, again.

[@leoniecochrane3108]

I really enjoyed all the parts.... i binged watched them. Thanks Kate

[@WhiTiger]

I have LOVED this series!! And I absolutely LOVED seeing other people's projects. Thank you sooo much for sharing!

[@carolcurtis2220]

Hi Kate. Hello from Melbourne, Australia. Just found you and I’m loving your relaxed nature. True north country charm. I originate from Essex. I’ve been here for 47 years come June. I’m loving your projects and ideas. 👍🏻😊

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

47 years! wow - thats a long time. when I went to New Zealand i really thought I could live there - everything seemed so relaxed and WARM! certainly not essex! I'm enjoying the relaxed pace of my life here in the far north! xxx

[@janambrose4917]

That is just the cutest thing! I enjoyed watching your dog making and the pics of other's efforts. They are all so cute. I wish I had this kind of talent. Thanks for sharing.

[@cynforrest]

Love your tip of protecting the final edge (red thread in vid) during stuffing. Fun project, Kate. Thanks for taking us along. It was nice to see all the dogs at the end and of course the sweet BABY!! Darling. Looking forward to the Journal series.

[@gloriangarner9146]

Hip Hip Hooray! Totally great. I am enjoying the doing of this project so much. And sharing with my quilting friends. Thank you Kate. Can't wait for the replies and sharings.

[@barbaraquiltinggardening5261]

Rita is adorable!

[@annefaught6009]

So now I see how the papers come out.That's a pretty slick operation. Careful stitching is most important. And the little dog is just sweet. Reminds me of Delft pottery with the indigo and white. Quilt on Kate! (New motto: Stay calm and quilt on?)

[@gwynwellliver4489]

Every dog is lovely! I have the "Spot" fabric, but I think I'll do my cat in Liberty. I have time to design it now. Thanks so much for sharing. The baby will come love his dog!

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

pictures of the cat please!!! xxx

[@jackiesoanes5519]

I have been brought some fabrics as a gift, so about to take the plunge into quilting, your videos are so gentle and down to earth, gives confidence to have ago.

[@chippewagirl7299]

I think the little dog turned out soooo cute. What a lovely gift. I love your idea of the journal. Maybe you've already done it and I missed it. This is November 17, 2019 that I am seeing the dog video. Maybe I can watch it and follow along by myself. LOL

[@deenawatts3257]

I loved watching this project. Didn't sew along but may make this dog in the future. Sewing the edges in the red thread is genius!!! I'll definitely remember this trick.

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

send a pic if you do Deena! xxx

[@bulldogmeis]

Oh thank you Kate for the last video........your dog is to cute…..i have started to make the squares...got 51 already…( dropped the crumbquilt in a box till the dog is ready...😊)...an i will show you the finished dog...it might take some time because of my wonkey fingers...but i will get there and show you…..Thank you !! 😊❣🌷 P.s. i made some junk journals ...sew in them...wrote in them...etc...made them from scratsch…covers and all....but i would make one along with you…...everyone makes them different…. .

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

wonderful! all of that .... just wonderful! xxx

[@Hiker_who_Sews]

So nice that you showcased photos from others at the end. Well done everyone!!

[@ritatharp5238]

Happy New Year's! ❤️

[@dcinrb8538]

There are times I wish my home was not as chaotic. If I can locate my sitting lion pattern, with his loopy yarn mane, I will send a copy for Rita & Norma. He's made of squares and originally from an old magazine. The torn page was in a secondhand book I bought 15 or so years ago. The photo showed a boy and girl, with one holding a dog and the other the lion. One day soon, lol, I hope. 💝

[@lesleygilbert1945]

Loved watching the dog being finished; now I need to go back and watch how you started to create him. I've seen these dogs in the past and thought them a bit old fashioned, but with selections of fabrics available now they look on-trend again :)

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

I like how you can scale them up or down depending on the unit size xxx

[@julieagar4483]

Thanks Kate, what a lovely series. I have only just found you on KZbin and I’m enjoying all your videos. I love epp I’m off on holiday for a couple of months and I might try one of these when I get home. ❤️ Australia.

[@northernkarma9296]

Lovely Kate! Thank you for teaching us this and everyone's dogs are SO beautiful!! Well done all of us!!! Looking forward to the journal project! x0x0

[@lynnemartin2291]

Quite a bit of work. Love the stuffing. Puppy turned out really sweet.

[@augustprice17]

I love this video! I’m in my 60’s and when I was a little girl 3 wonderful elderly sisters made me a quilted dog similar to this one! He sat on my bed for years and I loved him! Rita is so pretty. I think I distinctly heard her say that she doesn’t understand why you made a dog and not a cat! 😂❤️😂

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

ha ha!!! xxx lovely memory! xxx

[@msjenjenp]

I can't wait for the journal video. On Feb 9th, this year, I dug out my old art journal/diary and found the last entry was Feb 8, 2016!!! Exactly three years to the day. I found this to be amazing and a sign I need to start it up again. It's so enjoyable, yet frustrating at the same time. Your doggie is adorable. 💕💕💕

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

I will get on with the plan for this next! thank you xxx

[@rsislandcrafts]

Your dog is so cute all in blue. Kids love these dogs.

[@superg4117]

[@superg4117]

I made one! but ended up machine piecing because my hands hurt too much lately for EPP

[@trishawalsh9102]

Thank you so much for the tutorial Kate, it’s been fantastic & brought back so many childhood memories, although I haven’t started mine yet I have saved your videos to my library and once I have finished all my other projects I will then start mine ( mines going to be the dreaded black, white & greys 😂 ) i would definitely love to see a tutorial on how to make your journal next. Thank you once again Kate and the other dogs shown are just gorgeous xxx

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

thank you Trisha - I think your colour choices will suit YOU! and that is what all of this is about! xxx

[@maryfennell9672]

Thank you so much , but take a break now and then! xxx lovely to have you hear! xxx

[@irhonda31]

I loved seeing everyone’s dogs at the end, and yours with the recipient! TFS!

[@janebutz5375]

The doggy turned out beautifully! I've been inspired to make one for my new niece. The mom doesn't like the traditional baby colors (neither do I), so he's going to be prints in beige, brick, blue and brown. Luckily my sister is a compulsive fabriholic, so I hit her stash. I didn't get to send a picture, but I will when he's done. If you want to group our entries, I'd love a video on that! I like the idea of the journal tutorial. As someone else said, sure there are others on KZbin, but they "ain't got Kate"!

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

I am going to make a gallery video with all the dogs in the future - so when you are ready - send me a picture - take your time! I love that you have a stash to 'hit'!!! xxx

[@BeachPeach2010]

I love the size/shape of your dog...a perfect Westie or Scottie! Gotta love those terriers. :)

[@WistfulCreative]

So cute! I always stay stitch the openings on my stuffed creatures...it stops the stretching when you are stuffing firmly. A small step, that makes a huge difference when you go to blind stitch the opening!

[@lindseythompson2108]

Loved this tutorial series. I have cut out my paper and chosen the fabric. Look forward to the journal tutorial and congratulations on your subscribers!

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

thank you Lindsay - I am going to do a gallery video with everyone's work - so please email or tag me on insta xxxxx

[@marsworld7513]

Love the Puppy Dog. There maybe load of videos out there to make something.. But we don't get to learn the Kate way by watching someone else. Plus your style is very unique ..

[@laurafifer4453]

Please explain the stuffing, I have never heard of it. I have heard of wool and raw cotton but never this. Looks so soft and pure. Lovely toy, reminds me of the stuffed animals from the 50's so adorable. I will be working on one soon. Maybe reds and pink patchwork.

[@dianefields6056]

Dog is cute. Love indigo and white - I wonder why it seems to be an almost universally liked colour combination? Does the kapok not become lumpy after a while of use and washing? My aunt had a kapok tree in her garden and sadly I was a bit young to take advantage of it. (southern Africa)

[@BeautifulBlueHeart]

Wow its like magic! I wondered how you were going to get the papers out intact. I love the dog!

[@sylviapage8572]

I think I’ll give it a go. Thanks.

[@marie-annenogues7769]

Hi Kate, wishing you better and stronger.💜💜💚❤️ Just a silly question: have you tried to spin the stuffing? Take care and come back to us quickly we run out of tea and biscuits on the virtual sofa.😉☀️☀️🐈🐈🐈🐈

[@homemademama5459]

Hmmmm LOVE that beautiful EPP Dog. Are you planning to put it in your shop? I wouldn't mind him for myself!! When you think you dyed the fabric, prepared all those pieces, put the pieces together, stuffed AND recorded the entire process, that's a big job, Kate. Just love him. Thanks for sharing. And personally I sure wouldn't mind knowing how you went about putting the New Zealand journal together. I'm certain there's more to it than slapping a few pages together and calling it a book. LOLOL I'd rather watch your videos, anyway. Well, my youngest (43) and her hubby are coming in to take me out for lunch, so I'd best hightail it and get ready. Have a great evening (I believe you have 4:30 p.m. ???? It's 10:30 a.m. here.) And keep your fingers crossed for some warmer weather. We'll be in the deep freeze for at least another week. Much too long for me!! (Whew!! I DO go on, don't I?)

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

I hope you enjoyed your lunch! I will take orders for dogs if people really want one and aren't making one for themselves - I may just post about that soon - but that little chap has gone to its new owner - I sneaked in a tiny picture at the very end of that video! xxxx
