    My grandmother made this quilt for me in the 50'60's. I have not been able to find the name of the pattern. Does anyone recognize it?

    Not a clue of the pattern, but I love it. Wouldn't mind finding out myself.

    I have not seen it before, but it sure is pretty! Maybe she made it up herself?

    According to Barbara Brackman's Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilt Patterns, it could be a scrappy version of Rockingham's Beauty or Buckeye Beauty.
