I appreciate my grandchildren taking quilts from me when I was learning and enthusiastically gave them all those "yikes" quilts. I have no idea where they are now other than knowing where they're not - in their house. I made some crib-size quilts when my great-grandson was born and threw in a small rag quilt that I had made as a demo for my students at school. The back on that quilt is fireside so it's soft on both front and back and he has adopted it as his drag-around-use-all-the-time quilt. I don't like heavy quilting on any quilt for sleeping under as I like blankets to drape around me and assume others do as well. Sometimes even without too heavy of quilting the finished quilt is still kind of stiff. I've thought about using high loft poly batting but with a bolt of warm & natural to use it seems silly to buy batting.
