Thank you all!!

Mom was making another purple quilt for herself a year or so ago and the bride saw it and asked "who's that for, like the purple". So we knew we had to make the primary color purple for their quilt.

Very pretty! And the label will have all that information on it! Please do include the makers and who it is for and when it was made! Where is good also! Labels will help EVERYONE remember better!
It is a very pretty pattern! :lol:

We put labels on everything we make, it's already on there.

Funny story about the label. I made it a couple of months ago when I was having to make one for another quilt. Might as well, get it out of the way while have embroidery machine out, right? WELL, Mom put it away for safe-keeping, two weeks ago, she started looking for it. Couldn't find the blasted thing. So last Wednesday night went to her house (where machine is) to make her another one. We were talking about fabric she wanted to use for it. She picked up one purple swatch, said want purple, but not this tone, I opened a box, she said, THAT one, pulled it out and it was the blasted missing label!!

What a lovely story and even lovelier quilt. I really hope you document for future generations to know the story behind this quilt. Great job.

It's simple and beautiful, my favorite kind of quilt! Your mom's handquilting makes it extra special. I'm sure your nephew will love it!
