Finished ~ thanks for your help!
 

Thanks to everyone who told me I didn't need to add additional yardage for the quilting, thanks for the school glue thread for sandwiching (I used it and it was AWESOME), and thanks for the hint of office supply clips for the binding (I used them and it was much better than pinning; although next time I think I will try the glue!) This is the finished product~for my son for Christmas :)
