OMG.....I made this quilt in 2002, and still have the pattern and book here at home (it's featured on the front cover of "Applique Quilts" ~ The Australian Country Craft Series/Craftworld Books).
It's beautiful.
Did you read the little story why it's called 65 Roses?
The little boy could not say "cystic fibrosis" (his older sister had Cystic fibrosis) and he would pronounce it "65 Roses".
Awesome work!
