I love your grandchild's taste. She sure knows what she wants and early in life doesn't she? Gotta love those grandkids. They sure keep you hopping.

Your artistic challenge turned into a WOW quilt. I hope she lets you enter it into a show.
Your story made me smile! I have never hit one, seen a few here and there and mostly dead by the road. Story goes when they get startled - they 'jump' straight up to just about grill height... must be partly true hahaha. When I asked Zoe why armadillos, she informed me they are the only animal that can roll up into a ball. Yes, she knew exactly what she wanted. Can't wait to see her reaction when she gets this. They are almost 6 hours away but coming in to see us in a few weeks.

Thanks to you and to all for your kind words!
