I work in a nursing home and can tell you that the residents love , love, love getting quilts,lapquilts for gifts. Also they love to know who made it for them and why, sometimes they want that connection and be able to say thank you to the maker! Keep up the great idea! Another aspect of the quilt giving with the maker known is that the staff also wants to thank the people that give so generously of their time and talent. It warms our hearts as well when our residents are remembered.

This may have been mentioned, but if not...I would like to suggest that you ask the front desk who that person is and take it to them in person. They would love to talk to you and thank you. Maybe even get their name and come back and put their name on the quilt...these kind of things have a way of walking away.
