Default HELP!!!! Pattern for blues and browns with no florals for an older couple

HELP!!!! My next recipent(s) to get a quilt loves blues and browns which I'd add beiges for the lights but can't think of what pattern to use. I've already pulled a bunch of blues and browns with no florals and absolutely no lime green mixed in but I'm sure I could add regular green. Don't want to use a pattern I've used in the past such as DP9, regular logcabin, Pineapple Blossom, Split Rails, Trip Around the World and basic 12 blocks with some sort of star in each as the wife has seen my quilts in the past so wanted something totally new. Also think they're more toward traditional but could go a little toward modern if not too zany. Thought about a bargello but can't figure out how to blend the blues and browns together. Also thought about the Bento Box and may end up with that one if I can't find another one. I'm at a loss but thankfully I have plenty of time as they have no clue I'm making it for them.

Any suggestions with possible photos would be greatly appreciated. Right now I have picked 5 fabrics for the blues and 5 for the browns. Have more to choose from but that's as far as I've gotten on this project. You can email me privately

Thanks
