Technically - not quilts.

But I'm sure very warmly received by any charitable organization looking to provide coverings/blankets/snuggies/quilts for children.

Seems sort of petty to complain about quilters not getting the "appropriate" recognition when it should be about the kids.

There are plenty of other venues where it would be more worthwhile to point out the distinction between quilts and blankets.
