    Default 2 lap quilts done

    I bought some fabric from 1piecemaker that was just right for this 4 patch posey star quilt. This one is going to a pitient at the rehab hospital where DH worked at recovering from his stroke.
    DH will probably deliver it tomorrow.
    The second is for the mother of a friend. I am convinced that a lap quilt is a great value when undergoing Chemo, so I whipped one up for her.

    Those are both so pretty. What a caring gesture. I love how you said, "So I whipped one up for her." I must say, that's pretty nice 'whipping.' <3

    I am told the patients feel very cold when undergoing chemo. So a quilt is wonderful. It is also comforting to the nerves. It is really a lovely thing for you to do "whipping one up". They are both really pretty. of course the second is more my colors and I love flowers. But the second had real stiff competition with the four patch posey. I love them too. There is so much to discover in them. I hope your husband is doing well.
