Martha Tabis’s Quilted Dogs

Fiber artist and avid quilter Matha Tabis uses free-motion quilting and raw-edge appliqué to create custom pet portraits with fabric scraps, tulle, and colorful threads and yarns.  Look closely and you’ll see she can also include your dog’s actual pet tag in the piece.  What a beautiful way to memorialize a pup who has passed away.  I don’t usually feature pet memorials because they depress me.  But these make me smile.  Her cat portraits are  wonderful too…
