Comfort Quilt for My Sister
 
I finished a comfort quilt for my sister who is undergoing chemo for her aggressive form of breast cancer. She loves it and took it for her treatment this week. She told me she will take it for every treatment. I told her that love and prayers are in every stitch and that the random quilting lines represent the puppies runing all over to capture cancer cells! The pattern for the little puppies are from https://www.etsy.com/shop/dahliainbloom/items and the dog on the back is one of those little puppies enlarged 400%. I also made a pillowcase that utilizes 2 of the cute puppies.

That is adorable. I know

Adorable. Wishing your sister a complete recovery. Imagining those puppies taking away the cancer cells is very therapeutic and a positive attitude really helps.��

How could your sister fail to have happy days with all those adorable puppies! Wishing her the best. You're a great sister!!!

Cute and colorful puppies! Will be praying for you and your sis.

Fabulous quilt both front and back and front and back are truly interchangeable. The pillowcases are wonderful extra touch and will make it easy for her to transport the quilt to treatments. Love your analogy of the warrior puppies. It is sure to bring her comfort and a strong fighting attitude to beat the beast she is currently battling. Every time someone comments on her wonderful quilt (which is sure to happen by other patients, nurses, drs and others) it will remind her just how much you love her and give her the strength and courage she needs.

Totally Adorable!
What a special quilt you have given here.
At first glance I was thinking the smaller pups was a print fabric, but OMG, you made them all.
Which makes it even more special, indeed.

Talk about giving your sister a lot to smile about!
I'm sure it will be a most talked about quilt when she goes for her treatments.

Great story/analogy about those warrior pups and the job they have to do.

Awww those long little doggies will wrap her with warmth and love. Very lovely!

That sure is a cute quilt that's sure to bring her many many smiles--and other people in the hospital, too. I'm sorry about her cancer. What a lovely sister you are.

I love the whimsy in your quilt. It will bring a smile to Penny's face every time she covers herself with it. This is a tough time for both of you-stay close to each other. God bless both of you as she goes through this difficult time.
