Would you have said anything?

What? Batting on the outside? And she's leaving it like that? I think I've misunderstood......this doesn't make sense to me.
Edited to say that after reading all the other posts, I now understand. It was wonderful of you to help her as you have, and I hope she feels better soon. It's awful to be so sick you find yourself incapable of doing ordinary things, but it does happen....helped by medication side effects.
You're an excellent neighbor!

You could just put another backing/binding on it.
"Don't feel bad if people remember you only when they need you. Feel privileged that you are like a candle that comes to their mind when there is darkness."

try the old " i might have just the thing to help you out" line, then give her a couple options so if she is having issues, you can keep the choices to a couple and not stress her? You could even offer to tie it? Since it is baby size it won't take long and she might just be thrilled. Bless your kind heart.

In this case, I probably would have said something, particularly with all the problems having batting on the outside would encounter. If she's been sick, she might probably be happy that you would help fix the quilt, rather than letting it sit and collect dust.

Dresi, I am so very glad you helped your neighbor. I have emphysema, and svenskaflicka1 was right on the money with his/her assessement! Lack of oxygen...lack of brainpower.

I spent a little time on massive doses of Predisone. Turns your brain to mayonaise a bit, but it will resolve when she finishes it.
