    Default Lap quilt for a senior

    I made this quilt for a lady named Mary who is now 95 years old. Mary was a wonderful roommate to our dear Aunt Rose who passed away earlier this year. I put Mary's full name on the label on the back as she is still at the care center and things disappear out of rooms at times. Mary loves to knit and makes scarves for the homeless!

    Lovely quilt for a lovely lady who obviously shares her talents too. I like how you personalized it with her name and a skein of yarn and a scarf. Too cute. She will cherish it.
