My Aunt was Diagnosed with Stage 4 Breast Cancer - I couldn't be there so I made this quilt to comfort her. She passed away the day after receiving it.

What are you most proud of?

Getting this pieced in 2 days & just how soft and like a waterfall those soft rose colors appeared around the cross.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Make sure all the seams line up.

After seeing this beautiful quilt I decided to make myself one similar but it purples which I haven't finished! But a friend went into the hospital for back surgery and I made her one in blues that I will be putting on here. I will add your name as to where I got the idea.

There is no pattern as this was my own creation. However, the cross is made with (24) 2-1/4 x 2-1/4" squares and the rest of the background is made with (137) 4 x 4" squares plus a 3-1/4" boarder. The quilt ended up being 44 x 52. The block sizes do include a 1/4" seam.
