Bandanas for Dogs

The Annie Early Wheeler Chapter, 945 of the Children of the Confederacy, with generous donation of fabrics from Bison Mercantile and fabrics from Anna and Sarah Mills’ quilting supply, has made beautiful bandanas for some very special dogs. The children are blessing two organizations with the bandanas that know some big dogs with big hearts.
