There's a video and instructions here if you are interested.

I loved this one!

It was honestly done in 6 hours from cut to done! And I wasn't trying to rush it, just working diligently.

Give her a card with love and promise of a quilt when you get it done. She'll know you are thinking of her and that way she'll be able to concentrate on that gift without a dozen others shouting for attention, and the givers looking for thanks.
She might even prefer it this way.

Kristen 0112 I really like your idea, Neat thought there, would save a lot of problems for many of us in the future when we are rushed with other things. I know I will use this idea in the future. Thanks!

Don't worry about something fast. Etiquette says you have up to a year to deliver a wedding gift. I'd send a card, and say you just weren't finished yet. This gift is for someone special and should be something you're happy to give. But then work on something special.

why rush a gift for such an important friend on such an important occasion.
