I think it's a nice gift, even though she pieced the quilt herself, she couldn't afford to have it quilted, so you got it quilted for her. She will be so surprised that you got it quilted for her!
Not only is the quilt adorable, but how sweet of you to have it quilted. Now every time she looks at it or uses it, she will have to smile and think of you. What a wonderful gift.
