I made this quilt for a dear friend that allows us to stay at her apartment when I need to go for check ups at a cancer hospital. She called me today to let me know she got it and she was so thrilled and surprised. I quilted it on a friends LA machine.

Hanging in a window, I think it is too bright...oops

Beautiful. That's so kind of her to let you stay with her......and it was so kind of you to make the quilt for her....both I am sure will not be forgotten.

Oh--you can probably guess I love that quilt!! What a lovely gift.

I like how those nine patches fit in. What is this pattern called?
