    Thanks everyone... just need to put a label on it and send it off. (She is in a nursing home, so I want her name to be prominent on it)

    Finished size is about 40*50.

    It is a disappearing 9 patch - really random, with the only consistency being the small (center) square being solid brown. To get this size I started with 6.5 inch squares and made 5 - 9 patches of them - and then assembled as a D9P with a 3 inch border.

    Very pretty, and warm too. I'm sure she will enjoy using it.

    It's great,and I'm sure your son feels good about his helping hand in this quilt. He's a great help in keeping her warm!
