Our family room (read TV watching room) just happens to be the coldest room in the house. And since DH spends his evening hours there in his big lounger, he appreciates having a nice lap quilt tucked snuggly around him. Since he is almost 6'3", his lap quilts are pretty big. I've made his quilts out of his old shirts and jeans. That way he's instantly bonded with them. 8-)
