Christmas gift success

I have a rather picky friend and have wanted to make her a quilt for years. When I found this quilt on Pinterest :

I thought I could adapt it for my friend. I made it and gave it to her last week. She was genuinely happy with her gift and immediately mailed pictures to several people. We were both very happy:
