Here's the quilt top I just finished for my nephew's college graduation. His sister is also graduating from HS this year, so she will get the purple one I posted a few weeks ago. Used the same turning twenty pattern, but tried for more masculine color scheme. My DD said I got a little frilly for her cousin, but I hope he will like it.

I really like it and I think it's very masculine with the shades of browns.

Doesn't look frilly to me. Strong masculine colors.

If your qult recipient says anything negative, tell him you already have a home for it where it will be loved and treated with the respect that fine art is due. I'll send my address right away. I'll even pay postate.
