Most of the charms are from Modas Harvest Bouquet collection. I think my boy would like this, He is into brown at the moment, so, I'll get them sewn together and find something to use as a border/ backing fabric.
I had already decided that the other pack was more inspiring for the chevron quilt, it's another Moda collection, 'Autumn Journey' I'll decide on which fabrics I want and make a note of them, then make up a second charm quilt with those too, I have enoughof the fat quarter pieces left to make another the same size and with that in mind they should look kind of like a pair.

Teenagers are funny! At that age, when my nephew had his buddies sleep over, they were all snuggled under all his quilts that I made for him. There were lots of blankets, but they chose the quilts. Go figure!
I think that looks great! Probably as masculine as a quilt could be!
Looks just right for a boy, I'm sure he'll love it.
It's always dicey when you want to make a quilt for a teenager -- will that be something they want, or something that makes them groan. It's great that your son actively WANTS a quilt!
When I decided to make something for my teenage niece, I walked her through a long process of looking at pictures of quilts and telling me what she liked or didn't like about pattern, colors, color contrast, and so on. It remains to be seen whether that means I'll make her a quilt she really likes, though!
now, there's a compliment!
A teenager wanting a quilt made..that's lovely.
I'm sure he will love it to bits, just because Mum made it..
How sweet that he appreciates what you do and respects your work so much to want some for himself!
The pictures look great :)
Oh Loulee...IMHO..it's a great choice! Hey you know...it would look great in my room!
