Looking for ideas on a simple quilt
I want to make a twin size quilt for my grandson who is 17. He plans to go to college for gaming so I'd like to make a simple quilt with fabrics related to gaming and there are plenty out there. I'm considering just 6 inch squares but I'm wondering if random placement of the fabrics will be too "busy." I've also considered diagonal rows with a different print in each diagonal row or possibly making row 1 the same as the last row and row 2 the same as the next to last row, etc. I did one like this many years ago using fishing fabrics and it was fine. Or would I be better putting in some plain squares to eliminate the business? I really don't want to put a super lot of time into this as who knows how long he will use it but I do want to make it.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. I don't plan to start it for a few weeks yet as I need to get the fabric plus I have other projects that need to be completed first.
