I used to make a lot of dresses out of double knit when it was in style and I used to scraps to make quilts for the boys beds. I just sewed blocks together, nothing fancy, and used flannel or an old blanket for the backing and tied it. It doesn't need batting. They are so warm and wash well. I still have one after about 40 years. LOL If you don't want them, I'm sure the homeless shelter or some charity would love them.

That could be a good project for a church group or just several friends to get together and make the quilts.
