    Love it! Just a suggestion: put fleece on the back of the boys' quilts. I do that with my grandsons and it seems much more durable than cotton fabric. If you've never done this before, the fleece acts as both batting and backing. You can quilt as much or little as you like, as the fleece has no "every 4 inches" type of requirement.

    Thanks, this is a great suggestion. Especially since they will use the quilt as their blanket, whereas the girls use it more as a bedspread.
