Your fabric choices and ideas for differnent colored sashes will make a perfect quilt for him. Love the paintball fabric too. He will be so happy to get it.

I am making a quilt for my son who is 27. He wanted black and green. I found a print with multiple dollars on it with a black background. I have been having a ball with the design. I made 28 arrowheads for the border and a big medallion in the center with snail trails. I am still in the block making stage. Hopefully, I can figure out how to download a picture when it is done.
I love the paintball fabric.

Great fabrics for a teenage boy. You could also alternate the big blocks with 4-patches or 9-patches of random combinations of your solids. We did that with some M & M fabric for a baby quilt and were quite pleased with the result. Can't wait to see what you decide.
