I do appreciate all of your thoughts.
I'm almost 86 myself, and yes, I get cold, too. But I found that two quilts are better than one. With that extra layer of "air" between them, they offer just a bit more insulation value. And each quilt is easier to wash and dry separately. Also, sometimes I get too warm and toss one of the quilts aside (or onto the floor LOL). With such a heavy quilt it would be all or nothing at all.
Another thought. Some people really like the extra weight. They sleep better under something heavy. Two quilts would satisfy that need also.
