I also do not make red, white & blue quilts for QOV. The typical recepient is a 20 something male. So, coming from a family of all girls and having only a daughter & grand daughter it gives me the chance to use "guy" fabrics.

So get out the sports, wildlife, things with wheels, etc fabrics and have fun. I'm collecting music and guitar fabrics for my next one.
There is nothing wrong w/making red,white and blue though. I just made one using all patriot fabric; as a matter of fact just about everyone if the class used the same type of fabric.
