Richard’s imaginary friend, Bulldozer

This quilt is in honor of my little brother Richard.
He was a quiet and angelic boy with beautiful blonde curls.

He had three very noisy sisters who were a little too much for him. Here we are ellen, Kelly, Richard, and Jill.

So Richard made up an imaginary friend named Bulldozer who spoke for him and helped him cope with his loud sisters.

My job was to set the dinner table and Richard would remind me, “Don’t forget to set a place for my imaginary friend Bulldozer.”

Richard couldn’t say his R’s. He turned out to be really smart.
