And yes, it is considered an art. Some art theorists may consider it craft, but I don't see a difference between art and craft (quilts hang in art museums, and paintings are sold at crafts fair). Its art with an instrumental value- meaning it has a greater good beyond itself (in this case- the greater good of warmth and the greater good for your friend to show his pride).
Nice work!!

Yes, it's an art
and a craft.
The art is in the designing (including the color and fabric choices, and arrangements), and the craft is in the production skill.
Maybe it's "art" when it hangs on a wall, and "craft" when it covers a bed.
But it's all beautiful.
