love it! Don't know the name, but you can lay that design out on some graph paper.

Very pretty and if I were you I would get it appraised and then insured.

I can only echo, what a wonderful treasure. It is a beautiful quilt and your Grandmother was obviously talented before tragedy struck. What a lovely find.

It's gorgeous. I luv quilts like this. I would be careful of it but I would definitely put it in a place where I could look at it and treasure it everyday.
