You did a wonderful job on your quilt. I guarantee that quilt will be cherished by your friend. Everytime she puts it on her lap or lays under it she will think of you.
Even if she happens to put it on the back of the couch or chair. Everytime she sees it she will thinking about you and the memories you two share.
You did a fantastic job! On the quilt also, but being such a special friend! Great friends are hard to come by! Enjoy!
Merry Christmas!
