"The Long, Long Dog" quilt is a vibrant and whimsical creation, measuring 45"x59" that captures the playful spirit of its namesake. Crafted from an array of colorful batik fabrics, the quilt features a continuous pattern that forms the elongated silhouette of a charming dachshund, stretching across its surface. The intricate design was machine-pieced by Nancy McKee, ensuring precise and durable construction, while the longarm quilting by Emily at Threads Run Thru It, adds a delightful dog bone pattern, enhancing the quilt's theme.

Accompanying this quilt is Julia Patton's book, "The Very, Very, Long Dog," the heartwarming and humorous tale of Bartelby, a lovable sausage dog whose extraordinary length leads to all sorts of adventures and amusing mishaps as he roams the city streets.

Designed for both beauty and practicality, this quilt is machine washable and dryable. All fabrics have been pre-washed to minimize shrinkage, but it’s recommended to use a Shout Color Catcher (or a similar product) during the wash cycle to maintain the vibrancy of the batik colors and reduce possible bleeding of fabric dyes. This quilt is perfect for dog lovers and anyone who appreciates a touch of whimsy in their home décor.
