he will LOVE IT!!! and shame on his mom!!!
kids quilts should be ...kids quilts, quilts they love and can take everywhere ... what 'she' considers a 'real-quilt' is probably one she would stick in a box under the bed anyhow. give him the quilt happily, he will know the love and care. and there is nothing at all wrong with using panals in quilts!!!

I worked harder keeping the panel from getting wonky than I did on his other "real" quilts! Kinda hoping he likes it just cause his tomater is on it. do any of you feel it is crappy to use a panel? I used the world on the back so when he is older, or now, he can look at the map and know his dad Army-deployed, is There.
