Making a gift for someone else to hand over.

A friend asked me to make a baby blanket for someone she knows. She asked me in good time so I agreed. I enjoy the process so we came to the agreement that she would take me for afternoon tea as a thank you- and I was/am quite OK with that.
The problem is she is being very strange about picking up the blanket. She lives a distance from me but works not far away. She has told me a list of dates she can't make afternoon tea so I suggested we should meet up and I could hand over the blanket - it didn't need to take long, she doesn't even need to get out of her car!
The baby is now two weeks old and there has been no mention of her picking up the blanket. I am getting the impression that she thinks she has done me a favour by asking me to make the blanket and is waiting for me to ask her to take it so she can tell me how many days she isn't available to collect it instead of when she can get it.
Meantime, it's in a gift bag and in the cupboard.

Leave it there. If she wants it she can come and get it. Don’t bother asking her, it’s her call!

Exactly what mount has said. The onus is on her to pick up the blanket.
