    Mother had made beautiful star blocks but got macular degeneration before she could finish it so I ended up with it. Had no idea what I was doing but it turned out very good. We gave it to (great) grandson Dillon for his HS graduation

    That is beautiful. Two generations involved with the making of that quilt.

    Mom was a perfectionist when it came to sewing, everything matched PERFECTLY! I don't think I'll ever be as good a sewer as she was. Glad that soemone named it, I didn't know what pattern it was.
