This is a wonderful idea. My husband used to be an adminster etc in Senior living and lapquilts are always nice. The two things I'd like to add are-Present the quilt personally or it may never get to such a resident. The nursing home may have lax staffing or on the other hand rules of privacy and a call ahead to arrange a personal delivery would be best. Aslo if you can get the persons name so it can be put on the quilt for ID also for the resident to even better recognize this as their personal quilt. Note from my husband: contacting the activity coordinator or the life enrichment manager would be the best to get in contact with such a resident as they know them better then the administative staff do.
