    This quilt was so thin and some of it was muslin, very thin. I had to mend several places to keep it together. But I love it.

    That is beautiful, it reminds me of a pattern of Eleanor Burns ice cream cone block, but this is so unusual..I love it.

    What a beautiful quilt. I love the colors and the block design. I am wondering what the block name might be. Anyone have an idea. It looks complicated. I will have to see if those are diamonds or triangles.
