I've had so much fun with Sarah's dog quilt today! I wasn't sure what to do on the outside border. I decided to find a bone clip art and trace it on freezer paper. As an aside, if you do a Google image search for "bone," make sure you have the safe search feature on because you'll get some real doozies otherwise. :)
Use freezer paper cut to your shape, then trace with your favorite erasable fabric marker.
I used my iron to fix the bones to the quilt top so I could sew around them. The bones are set at 45 degree angles and filled in with loops. I used a varigated Rainbows thread by Superior that really gives it some zip!
