Better quilt picture lol. I adore it! My great grandma made the blocks and my mom did the green pieces and assembled all of it after she married my dad .

I know the pattern as Grandma’s Flower Garden, ( I’m sure there are other names as there are for most traditional quilt patterns) and it is profoundly tedious to piece by hand.

My mom called it grandmothers flower garden. The blocks were done in the 30’s and never finished, I’m so happy my mom did that part.

I know it as Flower Garden (but I could be wrong), and it is a PITA to piece. My mom had one, I don’t remember who made it or what happened to it. I am sure it was hand pierced and hand quilted.

AHA! A chance to share my completely awesome quilt pattern compendium. :joy: According to it (the compendium), it looks like a combination of 10/11 to be (it’s the tiling of 10 but the size of 11), and 10 is cited as a number of different names, including Grandmother’s Flower Garden:

The irony that I have this beautiful book, which contains 4,050 blocks, is that I don’t quilt and never have (though I thought about it; maybe that is a goal for the year, I don’t know if I have the patience, but the book illustrates a lot of really gorgeous blocks of all types).

Bast decided that the folded step ladder was the most comfortable place to be.

My SO wants to know if Daisy was bad and wants forgiveness.

In general, yes. At that moment she just wanted me to put my phone down and give her ear scratches.

Was trying to write client proposals this morning and someone refused his warm and snuggly dog bed in favor of sneaking under my blanket and licking my toes.

I think kitty needs her own bed. She keeps bullying pup out of her bed. Rude. They’ve been playing a lot together and really finding their groove. :heart:

Given what I know of cat behavior,mysterious should probably make sure her new bed is big enough for Birdie, just in case.
