QuiltE, I agree 100%. When I was in Chemo, my favorite cover was a fleece fringe, long lap blanket that had multiple light colors on a brown background. I actually made it myself as none of my friends or family are crafty. I still wag it around just like a kid with his nighty night. :>) But as mentioned earlier, it all depends on the person and so just make something that she would feel warm and comfy with.
