Faithful friend

We are in the coldest room in the house with two air conditioners still
on and also the overhead fan, and this room, fortunately seems to be
the most effectively cooled.
I decided to change the bed around 10pm, as you do, and got rather
warm again as I changed 8 pillowslips and took the linen out to soak
overnight. I have put both mine and Madam's pillows in place, at this
time of night she usually snags the one I rest my knee on, rather than
the one in the exact same spot on HER side of the bed, but tonight, even
the cold of this room, and I am actually shivering and must go to bed, is
not sending my faithful friend away.
I want to be with my Mummy.
Mind you......it could, just could have something to do with supper.
But she is a darling little girl and a very faithful companion.

Of course the reason the bag is not yet finished is that by the time the room was cold
enough to iron, or rather I had cooled down enough to consider it, she had taken up
residence, and who could move that!
Well that will do for an excuse for tonight.
A friend looked at this creation of mine......it has pleats, and said but I can see raw edges...
Ha....no more she can't. That bit felt good. Then I took the walking foot of last night and put the quilting foot on and starting to practice stippling........but forgot the wine and the music.
