What a wonderful idea. The design is very masculine---I'm sure she'll love and enjoy snuggling with it.
Good job, Kutnso

It looks great! My only suggestion would be on the other side or in one of the corners, put a heart with their names on it! Perhaps ask her for one of her shirts to marry one of his and hers in one block with their names? I don't know, however you are an angel to do that for her! Bless you!
