You can mix in the girly theme and the Lightning McQueen and other stuff. You could do an "I spy" quilt with all of it mixed in. I threw "Mater" and "Curious George" on a quilt b/c my son likes both of them. He uses it every day at preschool and loves it. His quilt is not an award winner but definitely fun and he loves it.

I would make it using the style/characters she likes now rather than hoping she will change to prefer the Princess stuff. It would be like someone giving you a quilt in a color they know you don't prefer hoping you will grow to like it. She's only 3 but you should honor her preferences (my humble opinion).
If she changes, it's a good excuse to make another.
