absolutely! applique here and there can really look great with pieced blocks... all round, or just in opposite corners going part way down each way... I would probably make sure I included the same fabrics in both areas, but yes, I think it would be more than okay....
I would simply make sure the quilt was not 'girly' in terms of colors...the number one combo that men like is blue and brown... 3 shades of blue, 3 shades of brown, white or ecru background and you are set... he'll love it...
