Default Traditional 3 layer quilts vs Summer Quilts

I have been quilting now for about 5 1/2 years and I am finding that my tastes are changing. Don't get me wrong I really love making quilts with three layers. However, I am finding that I am really liking making Summer Quilts with just the quilt top and a nice flannel backing. Now, if I do a quilt for a gift I will be doing Traditional. But for just quilts that I have laying around the house, I am liking Summer quilts. I think Summer Quilts for children would be good because of the fact they can bunch them up and drag them around and not be so heavy. I did ask some friends on my Facebook and it was pretty much either way is good. lol My mom said she actually preferred Summer quilts as well.

What say my Quilting Board friends, Traditional 3 layer quilts or Summer Quilts? I know it is all personal preferences, but I am just curious how many others out there prefer doing Summer Quilts over Traditional quilts...
