I want to make a comfort quilt for a 3 year old girl who has kidney cancer.I need to make it quickly.

If you don't already have ideas from your stash, pick up a cute panel in a children's theme--Frozen, for instance, and use flannel for the backing, machine quilt it, maybe applique her name on the front (or back) the quick iron-on two-sided pellon way. Three year olds don't care about the work, she will just love the quilt, and the mama will be so tickled that your care this much.

Sounds adorable. Sending prayers from the gulf. One thing about cancer it doesn't discriminate!

I would make a no-sew tied fleece blanket. You can easily make one in a few hours - much faster than my quilting speed.

Another idea is to get some minky or other super-soft fabric and bind it with some pretty, coordinating fabric.

I would do an I Spy with cute fabric squares. Looking for the neat things will be a good distraction for her.

Bless her heart! I agree that simple is the best way to go. Our little ones love the "whole cloths" I did with novelty fabrics and did basic cross hatching (with or without batting). Easy to do it the birthing method or bring the backing onto the front for binding.

I'm thinking a fleece that picks up every piece of hair and lint might not be good for a kiddo doing chemo!

I second Tartan's I Spy suggestion. At the age of three, it is the perfect thing to keep her distracted and occupied. Prayers for her and her family.

Bless her heart....I had a kidney removed due to renal cell cancer. It is over 6 years now and no sign of cancer. Hope her prognosis is equally good. My husband had chemo and he visited through first part of session and slept the rest of the time. A bright cheerful print would be delightful and I bet she will love it.
