[ATTACH=CONFIG]618342[/ATTACH]Found this on Pinterest but could not find the pattern. So I had to draft it out. Aren’t they cute?

Great quilt.

I have seen a few of these around the net. Is it the block called "the sisters"?

You didn’t find a pattern because there isn’t one. A friend of mine made that and donated it to her church. It was sold at auction to support Lutherdale for a very large sum. I am going to see her today. She will be flattered.��

So. Beautiful! I found that pattern on Pinterest also! Yours is very nice! I have some African fabric I want to use for the queens dresses! Afraid to cut into to! Thanks for sharing! How big is yours? Just adorable!

Love this pattern. Have been looking for something beautiful to make for my schoolteacher buddy. This may just be it. Thank you so much.

cjsews 10-10-2019 08:10 AM

Thank you all. My blocks were 9”. I think the quilt ended up at about 52 X 64. I gifted it to my friend and am making a smaller version to hang on my wall. I looked for African fabrics to use but couldn’t find anything I liked so most of these girls dressed in batiks that I had on hand

pattipat 10-10-2019 08:46 AM

It is beautiful.

RuthiesRetreat3 10-10-2019 01:10 PM
