This is my latest project. Just gave it to the recipient today. A family friends mother was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer and I made this comfort quilt in her favorite colors.

It is Daisy Chain from the book Jelly Roll Quilts by Pam & Nicky Lintott. I made the throw size which is 47 x 68in. It was actually a pretty easy pattern considering how many pieces it appears to have. Of course it is strip pieced. This one is my second big sized quilt. My other quilts have been doll sized or wall hangining sized.

Hope you enjoy the pretty spring colors!

VERY PRETTY -LIKE THE COLORS AND I THINK THE QUILTING REALLY SETS IT OFF. HOPE IT BRINGS A LOT OF COMFORT AND HOPE. SO THOUGHTFUL OF YOU.

Very pretty, and what a sweet thing to do.

very pretty!

<3 My mom was diagnosed with the same 2 months ago, thank you so much for sharing.

Beautiful fabric,pattern and quilting - what do you call that quilting pattern? It is something I would like to try out on a quilt I have made.

That is beautiful. It looks like it took a million hours to make!!!!

very nice

Very pretty!! I hope it brings her a lot of comfort too! Very sweet of you to make it for her.

Gorgeous! I'm sure your friend's mom will love it and get lots and lots of comfort from it. Nothing says "I'm thinking of you" like a handmade quilt!

Very, very pretty quilt! I have the same book and am currently working on the Friendship Braid quilt. I plan to make several other quilts from that book. I highly recommend it.

That's a beautiful quilt, Tracy, you did such a great job on it. And it is so thoughtful of you to do this for her, I know she'll love it and will be so comforted that you thought of her like this.

Beautiful quilt and she will love it!

It's just gorgeous!! I love the whole thing!! :D The fabric, the colors & the pattern couldn't be any nicer!!
:D :D :D :D

I love it.

Very nice!

i love it!!!!!!

It will wrap her is warmth and remind her of your friendship

That's wonderful. I like the colors. :thumbup:

Very pretty, I hope it brings her loads of comfort.

You are so kind to do that. I make small quilts and I made a ribbon tie out of one of the fabrics I use. Works great for me.

I did not quilt it and I am amazed at the work the lady who does the long arming around here can do. To give props, her name is Fannie Wengerd in Belton SC...

Anyway, she called that the "popcorn pattern". Not sure if that helps in anyway.

Thanks everyone for all of your kind words. You are all so supportive of the newbies. :-D

And I will agree about that book. I highly suggest it to anyone who wants to strip piece with jelly rolls. This was not actually jelly rolls it was several FQ cut in 2 1/2" strips. I find I seem to like those and I have taken to cutting my scraps into that size if they are big enough. The other comfort quilt I made was a pattern from that book. It was last year.

Bless you for reaching out in such a tangible way to a lady who needs the comfort and a family who will always remember a loving gesture during their trial.

Just beautiful! :D

It is really pretty and I love pink and purple together. I hope to make one in a couple of months using those colors, if I don't get side tracked or forget. Very thoughtful of you. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

That is so very very pretty, i hope it is bringing her lots of comfort
