Quilt for a friend starting chemo
 

One of my good friends was diagnosed about 6 weeks ago with breast cancer. She has had one breast removed and started chemo last week. I just finished making her this quilt and will deliver it tomorrow. She is a real bookaholic, so I hope it pleases her.

It is sort of a surprise, in that I didn't tell her I was making one, but I did email her yesterday that I had made her one. We agreed on a "delivery time" and I hope she likes it.

Thanks for looking.

Love the quilt and the inspector. How thoughtful of you. I hope things go well with your friend and your gift gives her comfort while she fights her battle.

What a wonderful gift. Cancer treatments take so much out of a person and to have a wonderful and beautiful quilt to snuggle into is such a comfort. It is a lovely quilt and you are a very good friend. Best wishes for your friend.

I think she will just love it. You must be a wonderful friend.

It's beautiful, timely, thoughtful! You are a wonderful friend.

Wonderful quilt that is sure to cheer her up and make her feel loved!

She is going to love it. Awesome job.

nicely done and best wished to your friend for her journey. please tell her to check the website for knitted knockers... they are soooo comfortable.

That is such a special thing to do for someone. It's bright and colorful and will always remind her of your thoughtfulness.

well done!

So thoughtful of you to make this for your friend. She's going to love it. I wish her well.

That's a wonderful gift for her. I'm wishing her all the best! Nice quilt.

:thumbup:I'm sure that she will like it very much, great job.:thumbup:

Perfect gift for your friend. I hope she heals quickly and that she enjoys you work.

She will love having this to snuggle under while getting her chemo treatments...such a sweet and personal gift. Healing hugs to all....

Very nice!

I love it as I am sure that she will. You are a good friend to do this for her. Wish her well. BrendaK

Really, really nice!! I'm sure she will love it.

She will love it. When I was having chemo, I was always cold. She will now be wrapped in love from her friend.

Very appro fabric

It's a wonderful quilt and you are a wonderful friend. I wish her well.

I was in a Cancer Clinic 2 weeks ago and people having Chemo or anything else will love to have a quilt. They are always cold and it's always cold in the Clinic. People working in there work so hard, they need the coolness. You are doing a good thing to give her a quilt. She will use it.

Beautiful quilt! How about a good book to go with it? I'm sure your friend will love your gift!

so very caring and I love the book fabric. I just started a similar quilt for a friend for the same reason.

What a great quilt! It only attests to her love of reading. (I am reluctant to comment, but did you notice that one of the 4 patches is turned the opposite way? Is that intentional?)

Great job!

Great idea using the book fabric as she is an avid reader. So nice to have a quilt she can enjoy forever from a loving friend.. Many women receive a pink cancer ribbon quilt and I've never understood why they would want a quilt that screams "I've got breast cancer" in their face. Sorry everyone...just my personal opinion.

Yes to Needing something warm while going through chemo. My sister knitted me an afghan of the softest, thickest yarn she could find, when I was doing it.

Such a thoughtful gift...I pray her surgery and treatment are successful.

What a thoughtful, and beautiful gift! Love it!

That quilt is so pretty, and they will love it. It's so appropriate for a reader.

Well, bummer! No, I didn't do it on purpose and I didn't notice it. I just delivered the quilt, and my friend loved it. I will have to look at the picture again to see the mistake. Sure wish I'd noticed it in time to fix it! :)

Beautiful quilt and it will be appreciated gift. I had a friend several years ago who had breast cancer and made her a pink teddy bear that she took to every chemo treatment. Just the thought of caring and love from another is a medicine for the soul. You are a true friend.

Really pretty quilt! Your friend should love it.

What a wonderful caring friend you are to her. Prayers for her quick recovery and warmth of the quilt.

Bless you for being such a good friend and blessings to your friend!

She is going to love it. You did a great job.

If you have any scraps left, a matching small pillow would be wonderful. (They make them small rectangles for comfort while healing from the surgery.)

Nice quilt for a friend.
