that's a lovely quilt, thanks for the background story.
I think it looks like a variation of
"Grandmother's Flower Garden". It sure used up lots of scraps.

Odd thing for someone to say...I think once a gift is given..that's it...no strings. Glad you are finally deciding to use it, it is a beauty and well done for 17 1/2 years!
We both come from parents with multiple divorces so I'm happy we were able to make it work. As for the comment about the quilt, my MIL said it is very typical of her. What can you do? :)

It's beautiful!! But don't continue to store it in a plastic bag because plastic is not good for quilts although yours is in good condition. You're lucky. Store it in a pillow case.
However, I 'm sure you'll use it a lot and have it out on display more than packed away.
