Just make her one and tell her you were waiting to find just the right fabrics and pattern to suit such a wonderful friend like her.
I make quilts for family and friends, plenty of new babies in our families the past few years, also make many quilts, tops or blocks for charity groups and my guild as well as pillowcases for kids in hospitals. My big push now is to make sure all grandkids have at least a twin size quilt, many have baby or lap sized ones, but grandma is getting older and want to make them big ones while I'm able to cut, sew and finish quilts. Top of my list to make is one for soon to be born 1st great grandchild, twin one for DGD who will be in college in the Fall, another for DGD who has her own condo and another DGD who recently got engaged. Also have some lap and wall size ones that I display at home or use to keep DH and myself warm and comfy during the cold weather. Recently went through and donated small quilts I have made over the years for Guild challenges, and found a lovely kimino one I had forgotten about - need to find a place to display this one. Oh so many quilts in my head and so little time, LOL! May in Jersey
