Best compliment ever--and I can see why he wanted that same quilt again. Timeless. Eye-catching. Bigger this time, right?

I'm happy you noticed them. The feet to the right belong to my son and those to the left belong to his best friend from childhood. I'm glad you like the quilt.

Sorry, the pattern doesn't have a name. I just made it up. A friend said it looked like blackberries, so I call it "Voilą les mūres" (or just "Blackberries"). If you look carefully, you'll see that there are 4 x 5 blocks made up of 4 triangles. Each triangle has a kite, two longer right triangles and two shorter equilateral triangles. I hope that helps.

Wow, what a wonderful pattern and beautiful quilt. What a great mom you are! I’m sure he will treasure his new quilt for years.
