I just looked up the pattern for the pink quilt. According to Maggie Malone's 5,500 Quilt Block Designs, the pattern is called simply, "Diamond and Star."

Now everyone will know the origin and legacy of your grandmother's quilts. They are all so beautiful. I bet your grandmother is blushing right about now! Thank you for sharing her quilts with us and many others that will appreciate them. Quilters live long among us, don't they?

Those are lovely, and what a great way to keep your grandmother alive through her beautiful quilts. They will bring joy to all who get the pleasure of seeing them, I'm sure.
