Rose's Quilt


This is Rose's lap quilt. Rose is the auntie of my good friend, Maria. In the summer of 2007 Rose was diagnosed with breast cancer. I made this lap quilt for her to both cheer her up and keep her warm during chemotherapy. I saw a quilt that had this simple block pattern, and I thought it would be fun to try. I did not have a pattern, so I do not know the name of this quilt block. It reminds me a bit of a log cabin in a fields and farrows lay-out.

(unknown block name approximately 50"x60" 2007)
