Awesome - both the quilt and the donation.

I looked at the heading and thought, dresden bicycle???? What could that be???? And then, Wow!! That's really cute. I'm sure your donation will be so appreciated. What an honor to him.

Jbenning there isn't a pattern available. The person on Pinterest says she posted it for inspiration and wants everyone to use their own imagination to make one. I drew it out on freezer paper and fused it then machine appliquéd it. I think I saved it. If I still have it I could probably send it to you. She could make a fortune selling patterns as there are a lot of people looking for a pattern.

I love your quilt. It is bright and cheery. It is a great way to honor your friend.

The original artist who created this quilt is Sally Manke. This is her Etsy store link: https://www.etsy.com/shop/SallyManke...er_title_items

The quilt must have been sold as it is no longer on her Etsy site.

How nice of you, and I love your quilt.

What a nice thing to do. I bet it was greatly appreciated. You even have his name on it. So cool!

A sweet quilt and sweet gesture in memory of your friend. He will be well remembered with this pretty quilt on the wall.

Very nice. Great job.

What a great tribute. Your quilt is beautiful.

What an amazing quilt idea, and so very well done! A wonderful tribute to a kind and decent man and his memory.

Wonderful quilt wonderful tribute!

Love your quilt. Sure would like to have the pattern if you have a source.

What a beautiful way to remember a wonderful man.

Wonderful quilt -- it is a great memorial for your friend. Congratulations.

This is the first one I have seen and I really do like it.

Beautiful quilt and nice tribute!

Really cute...

What a great memory quilt.

She also says that no one should "copy" it. Yes...she should do a pattern. Protects everyone. Since this will hang in such a public place...I would get her permission "in writing" to do this. I trust that it is labeled giving credit to the original designer. It is only right to do.....
