Dragon of Highland Park
This dragon is on display in the children’s room at the Highland Park Public Library. I took the photo on one of our trips to visit Belle, the therapy dog. Belle is on vacation until February. Have a good holiday, Belle! See you next year.
This is the whole colorful quilt.
For more photos with a little or a lot of red, visit Ruby Tuesday:

What an amazing quilt! I am so in awe of people who can create things like that.
Leora says
Yes, me, too! Takes a certain patience, dexterity and love of fabric. I've just got the love of fabric.

Leora, a magnificent dragon so beautifully colorful! I wondered who Belle, the therapy dog was til I click the link. That's a marvelous thing for a library to do! I love the new Ruby Tuesday badge. Can I use it and suggest it for use by other participants next week? :)
maryt/theteach says
Leora, I think the new badge is a little small on your post. Do you have a bigger version? Could you send it to me in e-mail? That is if I can use it... :)
Leora says
Mary, I'll email you a larger one soon (maybe tomorrow?). Yes, I would love for you and others to use it. Then in a few weeks/months maybe I'll make yet another one.

I really like this scary dragon. :)
Ralph says
I like this dragon, sot so scary as stylish (is that paisley on his scaly coat??). He appears to twirl on his canvas - a creative children's librarian is a gem, they were such a fun place for ours to learn!
Leora says
Good eye on the paisley - love that.
toby says
What an amazing find! I love how he's looking right at me :) Really gorgeous - thanks for sharing him with us!
Dianne says
the dragon quilt is gorgeous!!!
the colors and detail are so amazing
Diane AZ says
Wonderful dragon, I like the red rickrack trim. What a great library you have!
Patti V. says
Ralph probably noticed the paisley because we are into Vera Bradley patterns this year, ahem, thanks to our daughter who has become interested in those things. ;-) She may be getting something from Santa in that vein.
This dragon is colorful and creative. I wouldn't want to make such a quilt, but I can appreciate all the work that goes into it.
Very nice. Happy Ruby Tuesday!

Masterful job! I have no idea how they make those, but I have a soft spot for these blankets and crafts. Very colorful and warm - perfect to bring joy in the snowy day.

Jim says
Hi Leora, do you think that dragon in the library would scare the kids? I like your quilt a lot. It is very colorful as it should be.
Happy RT! I have three of my granddaughters and two dogs today for RT. Adi the beagle, is a therapy. We 'worked' today at an assisted living center with an Alzheimer's wing. The residents all love Adi.

Jim says
Adi is a therapy dog, we are a registered team with the Delta Society.

Leora says
That is so cool - such a wonderful thing, a therapy dog. Meeting with the dog has really helped my daughter relax about reading.
