Make him another one that is strictly for using, not looking at! Both of his other quilts probably have special meaning for him, & he might be afraid of ruining either one by using it. It was your first quilt - he wants it to be around for a long time. The Trekki one - well - that's special because it's a Trekki quilt, & he loves all things Star Trek. Doesn't this make sense.
Is there a pattern you have been wanting to try making? Make it & say that you don't know what to do with it, so he may as well have it.
I would tell you to lower the thermostat, but then you'd be cold & he'd probably be just fine, so that wouldn't work.
Good luck.
