I think this quilt is an example that "manly" quilts are more a manner of appropriate selection of fabrics than the quilt pattern itself.
    Beautiful fabrics and pattern! Do you know the fabric line and manufacturer? My husband would love this! Thanks!

    The brown and blue are luscious fabrics made in Japan with a very high thread count. I can't seem to post pictures from my cell phone, but they are from Robert Kaufman, and the line is called Enchanted Pines. I am sure you google a picture and source.

    More details: The specific fabrics in the line are "earth" (the brown with the moose) and "lake" (the blue with water and trees).
