this is a great thread...and oh so true..everybody associates hand made items with being "girly"....but I always sewed for my boys...here the teen boys are always forgotten too....yet when it comes to the quilts for soldiers, it is always the opposite..the girls/women get forgotten...stereopying at its finest I suppose! I have two boys quilts ready to be quilted! THey are RED..hehehe..with sailboats and blue with trains...hope they work!
