It's usually very warm there, but Gran feels the cold. I opted for a very lightweight batting and quilted it with the very plain and simple technique I have heard called 'stitch-in-the-ditch';
It was all going well, until the last line of stitching, when my pedal gave out and simply would not work anymore! Needless to say, I got out my needle and thread and finished the quilt and put my machine in for fixing...
Gran loved the quilt. Unfortunately 10 minutes after giving it to her, we saw the Dementia at work and she complained that people are always leaving their things in her room! Anyway, we left it on her chair and I am hoping the nurses will think to lay it on her lap whenever she needs a bit of extra warmth...
