A beautiful quilt like that gets many comments and visitors--both of which should cheer your father whether or not he knows you made the quilt for him. I made a quilt for my mother--who didn't have Alzheimers but did have loneliness problems--and the quilt made her much happier.

Thanks, everyone.
JCL, I made a little label with his name and the year. Everything he has must have his name on it, nursing home policy. I know labels are supposed to be sewn on by hand, but I did his by machine, through all layers, so it willbe difficult to remove without time and a seam ripper. I'm hoping it persuades people it's not worth the effort.
