Thank you for the replies and suggestions.
I had not thought of bugs, luckily I do not have any bug fabric in my stash. I think I will leave all animals and foods out of the quilts. Actually most novelty prints will be avoided.
I love Kaffe, likely the woman's quilt will feature his beautiful bold fabrics. Probably an HST quilt, as it can be laid out so many different ways.
For the man I have been planning a Birch Tree Quilt
