    I just completed this little quilt for a friend who just rec'd news that she has Lukemia. (AML) She has lived her entire life on a farm and since she will hospitalized for about a month she is missing her farm. I contemplated what could I make for her? I went fabric shopping and found this cute "farm scene" along with chicken wire and hay fabrics. I made it simple. It was alot of fun. I am almost done - will hand sew the binding. Do you think she will like it. I am hoping that it isn't to childish for an adult. What do you think? Thanks for your response. MaRanda
