Sometimes 85yo get forgetful and sometimes younger one also. I do hope you check up on her as I also hope she is not ill. We gotta give some room to our elders (I'm 73) because we will require room at their age also.
I am positive she will love the quilt, it is very pretty and springy. I will send a prayer that she is well.

My husband said the same thing - I said "what I don't act like that!" he said "Yes you do...and the fact that you find the whole conversation funny is more proof you are just like her!!"
Guess he is right.
I just bought some Maxine Material last night I may have to make her another quilt with it now!

I would call just to be sure she is ok ! then sheepishly lead into the conversation of her bd present. Making her believe you are the really forgetful one and did she receive it.
Love the quilt by the way ..
