False

Explanation:

Lou also has an advantage producing quilts, he produces almost double the quilts Zora produces, having that in mind, it is only logical that Zora can not have the comparative advantage over Lou regarding the produced quilts, therefore, Lou indeed has the absolute advantage in both goods.
