Re: You Will Never Fight Alone
Terri,
What a wonderful quilt....I am sure that your friend will cherish the quilt and all the love you put into making it.
I was asked today to make a quilt for a friend who's sister was just diagnosed with lung cancer. She also asked me to make a "hat /cap" from the same fabric(s) that I am going to make the quilt.....Has anyone ever made a cap / hat to go with a quilt you have made for a cancer patient ? I don't want to upset this gal by making a cap for her.....what do you think ? IF not a cap / hat, I thought about making a pillow case ( I have friends that take their own pillows with them when they are receiving chemo )

Nancy Zieman had some "cancer caps" in one of her books, and I made a couple for my sister-in-love when she was going through chemo. But I was using soft jersey fabric, not quilter's cotton.
You might want to see if you can find a pattern that calls for regular fabric on the outside, but can be lined with a soft flannel on the inside, next to the scalp, which may be very sensitive during treatment.

A pillowcase would be great, too! Or slippers - a bunch of folks here have made them. I did chemo through a very snowy winter, so I brought my slippers with me every time I had to go in for the infusion, so I could take my boots off.
