I have made my DGSs quilts (or fleece blankets) for when they go off to college. I got the most wonderful hugs from them. The older one told me that when he went off to Virginia Tech a couple years ago, his roommate asked where he got the cool blanket. He told him his Grannie made it for him. He even takes it on camping trips. It makes life worthwhile to know our "boys" appreciate our quilts. They tell me that it is like one big hug from me every time they use them. Now what can be better than that?!
