I recently got a Take 5 pattern to make a lap quilt for my dh. I was going to use patrotic material. He's now decided he doesn't like it that pattern. Does anybody have any ideas for different patterns that wouldn't be too frilly?

TIA

I saw this quilt and instantly put it on my list for my son.

*sigh* I wish I could help. Mine doesn't want *any* kind of pattern. Including, but not limited to, patterned fabrics. I'm making him a quilt with large appliqued Canadian Airborne wings on solid black...with solid maroon, solid royal blue, solid gold and solid white borders. I'm not even allowed to use blenders/marbles. Just solids. No block patterns or anything!

Ronna, do you know what the name of this pattern is?

You might consider BQ quilt or maybe a Three of a Kind by Judy Martin . Those Thinking Outside the Box quilts are cool. I recently made my hubby 'da Vinci by Jinny Beyer. I'll put it back up as my avatar.

"Just Can't Cut it" is a good one. I just saw a BQ3 made up and loved it, too.

I made DH a Warm Wishes quilt pattern using muted reds, blues, and tans. It's at the quilters getting basted now. He loves all the quilts though, even the floral pink one his Godmother made as a wedding gift to us. I made him one for his deer camp room. It was panels of deer sashed and backed with cameo fabric. It looks good on his camp bed and not quilt-y at all.

How about something like a mariners compass pattern in batiks or maybe bearpaw pattern using homespun fabrics with small plaids in dark colors.Have fun he will love what ever you make .
