Sewnoma

I love your post - my eldest nephew recently turned 15 and I swear he went from being a little boy to being a young man seemingly overnight! And boy did he get stinky! He doesn't like top sheets either (and hasn't for years), which I think is strange, but whatever! (He actually used to hate even sleeping in a bed and for about 2 years would take his quilt and pillow into the dining room to sleep on the tile floor, but he's outgrown that since.)

I made him a quilt a year or two ago that's quilted a little more heavily than my norm and has a smooth backing (rather than flannel like his other quilts) and that's all he uses on his bed for most of the year now. It's been washed countless times and it IS starting to fade a little bit but overall it's holding up fine. I will be more than happy to replace or repair it once it starts looking too shabby but for now he loves it.
