I think this is the best way to handle this situation. Either give it to him right now, saying "Look what I just finished for you!", or wait a while after Christmas and give it to him saying the same thing. We don't celebrate Christmas, but we do things for each other during the year. It takes love to make a quilt for someone, and no matter what the date, it will give him a warm loved feeling when he receives it. That's the important thing. The date you give it is not important.
