Description:
Sherri was made by Sue for an exhibit at the Houston International Quilt Festival entitled It's Raining Cats and Dogs. Created in her coloring book fabric collage style, Sue's quilt was inspired by her dog Sherri, not by her mother-in-law who also happens to share the same name. To make sure this difference was clear, and there was no confusion around the holidays, Sue had to spell the name on the doghouse with an "i" instead of a "y".
