I have an almost 10-year old grandson that I'd like to make a quilt for. Can someone suggest some 'boyish' patterns - and I do love applique - so a mix of piecing and applique would be great.  Also do any of you put flowery fabric in a boy's quilt? Sharon (N.B.)

I have only downloaded this pattern..but it looks very nice.... http://www.southseaimports.com/images/snake_02.pdf

I'm making a quilt for a boy age 11.  He picked out the Plane pattern at: http://www.quilterscache.com/LoneEagleBlock.html We picked out a lot of dark fabrics (greens, navys) and beige for background.  ( He didn't want sky colors, he wanted them on the ground. lol )  I'm trying to figure out just HOW I'm going to get USAF and a star on the wings.  Probably fusible and then stitched over.
