Family Topper Quilt for a Man

I'm working on a series of five quilts for the grandchildren of my mother, Bertie Carter.  We ended up with a huge stack of odd fabrics, so I've brought them to my house and blended them with a few pieces I already had.  My inspiration was a quilt Dennis owns, made by his grandmother in the 1960s or 1970s, with a Log Cabin variation called Sunshine and Shadows where the lights are all on one half and the darks are all on the other half of a block built with strips "going around". 

So, Nana had five grandchildren-- My sister's three girls and my girl and boy.  So we needed one quilt that would look a bit more masculine.  And this is it.  It has darker colors, less floral print, and more geometrics. 

These quilts will be toppers--- quilts just the right size to lay on top of a full bed, adding color and weight.  Any more size than that, and I wouldn't have had the tenacity to make a set of 5 quilts that are all similar.  I'd be too bored.  This is just a top and it has not yet been quilted.
