What a marvelous quilt. It's amazing what you can accomplish in 4 months using little bits of time. Love the colors and fabrics that you used.

The quilt was named after twin sisters who were to marry but one sister died. The pattern is from Eleanor Burns and can be found in one of her videos on her Media Center. When piecing the blocks , you end up creating two blocks that are transposing images of the other.
