I let each of my kids pick fabrics from the scrap bin, and a simple design, to make a lap quilt. This is my oldest daughter's. It's about 50" x 60".

This is a grad gift for my nephew. He's a northern MN boy through-and-through and wears a lot of flannel, so I figured I couldn't go wrong with buffalo check and a plain gray flannel back. I quilted straight black lines 1/4" outside of the seams in the red and blender rows/columns, to add a little bit of interest. Finding a good red blender fabric was tough!
