Aunt Becky’s quilt
 

My MIL has a very good friend named Becky. She has done some wonderful things for my MIL that have been a huge blessing to her, especially after my FIL passed away nine years ago. Becky has one daughter, and this daughter has no children. When Emmaline was born, Becky celebrated along with the rest of us, and took her on as an honorary granddaughter. This woman is wealthy by most people’s standards and is very generous. Emmaline has enjoyed a lot of things that we couldn’t afford due to Becky’s generosity. But more than that, she has loved on our whole family and is just a joy to be around. She has been on the quilt list for a long time, and her quilt is finally done. She loves purple and she loves bling. There is a bit of sparkle on the back of this quilt, and also in the binding.

Thanks for looking.

Becky's quilt is beautiful and a little bling is always fun to add. I think she will treasure it much more than some of the material things she may have been able to buy for herself, because it was made with love.

I'm sure she will love the quilt....anyone would...it's beautiful! Isn't it wonderful to have such a friend in your life? Everyone should be so blessed...

I love this lady already, you describe her in such a sweet light. I hope with all my heart she treasures your gift. It is so beautiful with so many grateful feelings attached.

Simply gorgeous!

Wonderful job! I’m sure Becky will love it.

It is gorgeous. So kind of you to make it for her.

Beautiful, looks like a quilt that will get lots of love. What better way to show appreciation and love then a quilt.

very nicely done

Beautiful quilt and I hope it is much loved!

A beauty of a quilt for a beautiful person!

You created a lovely way to honor the generosity and love of a special lady in the life of your family. Beautiful, beautiful work.

What a beautiful and thoughtful gift to show your gratitude for the special relationship your family shares with Becky. Beautiful piecing and quilting!

Beautiful work! I love the pattern and choice of fabric. Great way to show appreciation to Aunt Becky. She’ll feel the love.

Great people out there for sure. Beautiful!!

You certainly have an eye for color. It all came together beautifully. I like the pop of the chartreuse color. Great pattern, was it challenging? Wish I could see Becky's face when she receives it. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful quilt for a beautiful woman. The world needs more Aunt Beckys!

I'm sure Becky will love her quilt.

This quilt is beautiful in design and color. Becky is going to love it! What a precious gift this is. The extra bling sets off the entire quilt. Beautifully done.

That’s very pretty, great choice of colors and bling for this quilt!

What a lovely gift for Aunt Becky. I know that sweet lady is going to love it.❤️❤️

I'm sure Aunt Becky has gotten as much joy giving as you have had from this relationship. Some people are just kind and giving. But the quilt will certainly be a bright spot in her life as a recognition of her generosity and the closeness she has felt with your family. It is beautiful.

Aunt Becky's quilt is gorgeous!

Wow, that's gorgeous! She sounds like a wonderful woman. She's going to love the quilt!
Often it seems we hear of people of means who are just plain tight. Not Aunt Becky!

Beautiful quilt and so nicely done. Your friend Becky is so lucky to receive this gift.

I love this quilt pattern and when I finally get around to make it the color will also be purple. I have wanted this pattern for about 20 years when I saw Eleanor Burns make it. I think it’s called the 54-40 fight or flight or maybe Tennessee Waltz? Whichever it is I will eventually make one. Thanks for sharing.

A beautiful quilt, lovely quilting, and a touching story. Thank you for sharing it with us.

What a beautiful quilt and so nice to read your little story.

Beautiful quilt! She is going to love it.

One can tell that a lot of love has gone into making this quilt.

I love purple also and your quilt is a work of art. You are so fortunate to have a "Becky" in your life. I know she will love this quilt.

This is absolutely beautiful! Aunt Becky will be thrilled with it. Love the colors.

This quilt is gorgeous! I love the colors and these are not colors. It made a beautiful quilt. Now I haven’t read all the comments but is this an Arkansas Crossroad? I am not familiar with a lot of blocks so I could be wrong.

I found it 54-40 or fight.

Beautiful quilt!
