Our beloved polydactyl calico, Willow, lived to be 18 years old. I still miss her and her wonderful work as my primary quilting cat. She kept the others in line as she found her quilt testing and inspecting right up close and personal. Here she inspects a patriotic quilt as we prepare for Memorial Day in May going into the 4th of July.
Red, white, and blue or any of its variations works all summer long for festive decorating or gift giving.
