So, I am guessing that the reason your quilt is "manly" is because you did it <g>
there are just straight lines.
the colors are STRONG.
the pattern is simple.
I have always figured if I didn't put any pink in it, I was doing REALLY good! LOL
Nice work ... is the backing flannel, also?
M-A-N-L-Y plaid ... <g>
A very inviting quilt, indeed!

She's actually just started her first one. She does machine embroidery a lot, but she decided to try a quilt now. She's working on a picnic quilt for us.

None of them are actually flannel, they're just woven cottons, although some of them (the striped ones) are a real heavy kind of cotton fabric, almost like a light weight denim.
