Looking For Suggestions For FAST Quilts
I need suggestions for quilts that can be made very quickly.
My brother's MIL is battling cancer again. In the past ten years she's battled breast cancer, more than once. She felt a lump last summer and went back in for a check. In checking they found that her breast cancer has returned again, but also that she has bladder and lung cancer. They felt that her lung cancer needed attention first, so they went in to remove the cancer they found, in her left lung. Six weeks later they scanned her again and found a new batch of cancer cells in her right lung. She opted to do a cyber-knife procedure. They took her to the hospital to insert the "gold seed" and in doing so, collapsed her lung. She remained in the hospital for another week. The doctor's feel that the radiation/chemo treatments that she faces post-op will remove the bladder and recurrence of breast cancer, since it is pretty early.
In the past her medical insurance has covered all medical charges, but she's recently stopped working and her medical bills are piling up, fast. My SIL has set up a benefit for her, and I'm donating a quilt I'm going to finish (the top has been a WIP for far too long, lol). I'm hoping to donate more than one for the silent auction, though, so I'm looking for nice, lap sized quilts that I can accomplish in the next month before the benefit. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
