One suggested flannel but I've just commented on the posting regarding using fleece on the back so there's another possibility to make your project snuggly and warm. As to design, I'm partial to 9 patch blocks. Whatever became of the popularity of the Friendship Star? I haven't seen one of those for quite some time. That would be so appropriate with gifting to your friend!
PS--your stars wouldn't necessarily have to match. Each one could be different just as are the stars in the sky. But with your colors they would be coordinated. Sounds like it's going to be lovely whatever you choose and she will love it since it came from you.
