Baby Amelia and quilts

8 / 9 / 15

Hey everyone! I’ve just returned from Austin where I got to visit my granddaughter, Amelia, for the very first time.  It was just as wonderful (if not more so) as everyone said it would be.  I think I’m allowed to say that she’s the cutest baby girl ever!   I brought my good camera and… Read More
