My youngest DD took Home Ec in high school and they did some cooking and then the next semester the teacher asked the girls if they wanted to sew clothes or quilts and they decided on quilts - they only wear T-shirts and jeans. So, each girl had to buy enough fabric for a quilt top. Even though I had a room full of fabric, my DD wanted to "buy" some at the store, so I let her buy it and she made a really nice quilt and the next year she made two quilt tops in Home Ec. One was for her boyfriend. I had all of them quilted for her/his graduation.
