You could try a Times Three quilt. They are super easy and diverse. http://www.ericas.com/quilting/patterns/A19226b.jpg
The big squares can be fussy cut if you want to do a theme. I did a nature theme for my husband and a motorcycle theme for my Dad. Here is a picture of one that I made. [ATTACH=CONFIG]442784[/ATTACH] |

My favorite for a man - 9 patch with a snowball! This one is chocolate and turquoise for my cousin - and a white and turquoise for an aunt, both in flannel. Can you tell the turquoise was on sale, LOL!

Woody, Thanks for posting that site. I really like it and I had to order ' a few things'.

Any of the suggestions below would be good - the labyrinth is great, as well as storm at sea, log cabin, carpenter's wheel, etc. I think a simple block design might work best for a 40 year old man.

Choose a pattern that you like and just use more masculine colors.

I've made each of my sons a Bargello. My avatar is the one I made for my oldest.

Turning twenty with masculine fabrics?

After making one for myself, I'm again collecting plaid flannels for two more--one for my son and one for my stepson.

Find a focus fabric (hunting, fishing, Nascar, heavy equipment, etc - whatever he's interested in) and make a Warm Wishes w/2 accent colors.
