I have a very good friend that has been in the hospital for 3 months, she is now in long term care center and will be there for a long time while she learns to walk and care for herself again.
I am going to make her a quilt. I am just not sure what size I want to make it.
I have some scrappy log cabin blocks already done and I was thinking of using them. I have enough to make a king size but I dont want to make it that big

Here is what I was wondering
I was thinking of an oversized lap quilt, as she is a large women and she is still mostly in bed. Or I could make a twin size. She doesn't have any twin beds at home . The bed in the care center is a twin. So I am not sure what to make
What would you make

Also she is in Florida and is always hot. I dont want to use a heavy batting. I have a quilt from my grandmother and she didnt put any batting in it at all. As I was in Florida.
What should I use. no batting, flannel, another piece of cloth? Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance
