I made my own grandmother a beautiful quilt and some one stole it from her room. To this day I think it was one of the staff people who worked there. Also make sure you or your MIL take it home to be washed, do not let the nursing home take it to their laundry service. Good Luck to you on this wonderful gift for her.

I know what you mean, MIL has already told me she hopes it doesn't get stolen. I am thinking of the heart ache I am going to have when it does. If I make this more of a business transaction, meaning I get to keep the left overs to add to my stash, it may not hurt so much. I am very attached to my quilts I am sure someone can understand that.
