That sure is beautiful! It will be of great comfort for both of them in future days.
What a great and warm loving person you are. Maybe some day he will be at he park with it, keep your camera with you in case! what a picture for you album that would be a gift from a stranger.
I made one this year but more of a bigger lap quilt for my friend to use during her chemo. She felt so loved and it created some conversation that day. I guess it is usually pretty quiet during the treatments.
I wished I had quilted while my mom was doing diylasis (sp) it would have given her such warmth and comfort too.
