My darling sister, my only sibling, is not likely to read this blog, so I’ll share with you the completed quilt I made for her.

Relaxing with the Baileys …
Am back in the recliner chair after happily providing service to Pepper, Storm, Nellie & Sadie, Baxter, Dexter & Jazzmin, Mr. Lewis, Sunny, Smudge, Taffi, Shadow and Buster.
