I made a small quilt for my sister for same reason. I used jelly rolls and made a big heart. Its a free pattern posted somewhere on line. I will try to find it. Very easy,very fast.

can you find some way to get pictures of you and her family on it with hearts too. This way she will have love ones near her always. Good luck to her and love and God bless.

I agree with backing whatever you decide on with kinky...my sister was always cold. Best wishes for easy treatment sessions.

I saw a really cool idea - a quilted shawl with pockets

I like Warm Wishes quilt pattern. The design is good for everyone.

I am so sorry to hear about your sister. A free pattern from Red Rooster fabrics is called Heart and Soul (it is one pg 5 or 6 of their retired patterns). I have done this quilt a few times, twice as a baby quilt in brights and three times in soft pastels for adults. The last one I made was for a friend who was going through chemo and it was done in puples and violets because that was her favorite colours. http://www.redroosterfabrics.com/qui...rns.php?page=6

Our prayers for your sister. Any quilt will be made with love so go with what YOUR heart is telling you. I've made a number of them and alway back them with minky or fleece. The skin gets so tender during chemo and the softness and warmth is extra comforting.

My heart and prayers go out to you and your sister. One of my favorites is a whimsical theme, whether garden flowers, animals, ocean and ocean life. Something that will help her and you through the days to come.

Sounds like a winner! There are so many heart patterns, you might even do a quilt with a dozen or so different patterns, using her favorite colors in each.
