Welcome to the Quilting Board!
My neighbor knows I quilt
She's doing a baby quilt and lost her train of thought on placement of ties
She wanted a fresh set of eyes to help her remember
We figured it out but she's been sick and somehow managed to get the batting on the outside?
Anyway she said she is NOT doing it over to fix the batting problem
I wanted to take the quilt home with me and save it!
But I kept my mouth shut, said it was cute and just did what she asked me to.....

I would go see her and tell her the more you thought about it, batting won't work on the outside. Offer to correct it for her. Sounds like her heart is in it but she just can't pull it together. I would help her out on this one
I agree see if she will let you fix it. That just what shes waiting to hearOriginally Posted by toverly
I agree with toverly - when it is washed it will come apart. You are a great neighbor to do this for her!
I'm one that would have said something as well. I have to work at keeping my big mouth shut sometimes. . .but she needs some help.
I would tell her the batting will not work on the outside. It will collect dust and hair like a magnet. I'm sure the parents will be thinking I wish we didn't have this thing given to us.
I love my life!
You could blame her error on her being sick -
There may be something serious going on here health wise. Is there any other odd behaviors going on. I just can not believe someone would put the batting on the outside without some kind of a health or cognitive issue. Please keep an eye on her to make sure she is OK.

Yep, a quilt is useless with the batting on the outside. This quilt, and this neighbor, need help. I would offer to fix it.
I didn't want to hurt her feelings.
But maybe she was secretly hoping I would rescue her
She is having a COPD attack
I'll try and call her
