I did 5" squares alternating a deep blue (almost navy) with fussy cut sports, animals and other fabrics suitable for boys

Fast to make and it was absolutely loved. I had added a picture or two printed on fabric too.

My first thought is a quilt made from denim or t-shirt quilt but you'd have to have their old t-shirts unless you got some at a thrift store. And a denim quilt would be heavy to mail.

How about a D9P in their favorite colors or to match their room?

Find out what their interests are and go from there.

How about a T-shirt quilts I'm sure that you may have plenty of them around, use sashing between them :)

These are the ones I have made for donation quilts for that age group (may take a minute for the pictures to load).

I think you need to find out their interest first.
If sports, go with a sports theme. It hunting
like my 13 yr. old grandson, go with that theme.
Just an idea.

What about a denim rag quilt with flannel plaid on the back. I made my son a Bearpaw quilt when he was a teenager and he loved it.

sports or sports team fabrics. call mom and see what they like. If they are into Boy Scouts, there is great fabric for that. Or hunting or fishing. Mom can help, I am sure.
