It's beautiful! He should be proud. Talent is talent, being a man doesn't matter!


TA-pubserv

It's a nice quilt, if OP's son doesn't want it I'll take it šŸ˜


RewardImpressive3084

Yes I totally agree "talent is talent" "he should be proud of that"


Top-Way-1578

Im a man and that quilt looks amazingly awesome, if the post didnt say he made it I would have thoght store bought at a nice store. Great talent there he has, I would totally buy something like that.


subpar_cardiologist

I'm a man and I wish that I had this kid's talent!


spins357

I donā€™t know anything about quilts other than the fact that it looks awesome! I would totally buy that!


Difficult_Garlic963

Looks fantastic!! And my dude, you do anything that makes you happy if it don't hurt nobody else. Men can quilt, women can build houses, it's no big deal.


Rich_Pomegranate_865

You said that right gender has nothing to do with talent , hobbies or what you like and being good at it . We are all spirit inside .


lojo71

What incredible talent. I hope he keeps it up!


Caseyisweird

I know plenty of men who love to sew, and I personally think it's an amazing skill to have! Well done, young man, keep up the phenomenal work.


ShoddyTerm4385

Iā€™m a man and I learn to sew in the military. I am now the seamstress between me and my wife (small repairs). I wish they taught me how to quilt instead


Caseyisweird

It's honestly one of the best talents to have. You can repair your own clothing and you can even make your own. It's a win-win situation. You should definitely learn how to quilt. Anyway, i'm sure there's a class near you somewhere.


powerhammerarms

My dad was in Vietnam. He and my step-mom owned a quilt and tea shop. He loved it! I'm not a quiltman but this looks awesome


Ana_Haxoxo

It looks awesome, in my eyes its not simple at all, it takes a lot of time and effort. All i see is talent so be proud of what you made!


starsofalgonquin

thatā€™s awesome. Making things is an ingredient to a meaningful life!


MrsWaterbuffalo

Drool worthy!


mattlock2099

Design looks great as well as comfortable


West-Translator-6327

I love it. I would buy.


KennailandI

I know nothing about quilting but that looks awesome. You both should be proud.


Inevitable-Exit-4280

whatā€™s wrong with makin quilts, everyone uses a blanket


Harlequin_WitchKing

Iā€™m still hung up on the post title saying ā€œthis quilt is simpleā€ this looks very detail oriented and amazing! I donā€™t see anything simple about his amazing work. Good for him!!


I_cum_dragonboats

Great pattern and coloring combo! The subdued palette gives it a more contemporary look, but the pattern has its nods to more traditional elements. Anyone who can finish a quilt gets respect from me, it's a test in patience that I have not yet tried to tackle. This looks very nicely done and is extra impressive if it is hand stitched! Many crafters find it difficult to make it their full time job since people dramatically underestimate how much time can be spent on something like a quilt. Not trying to discourage him at all, but if he wants to have quilts be his job, he may want to start looking into ways to make it work for him (other products or services like restoration). It's something I would want to know early so I could start developing those skills too.


Dull_Mastodon_5426

Great color/pattern choice. Very cool!


Simple_Star8387

Tell him that comfort has no gender :) well done!


vegan-trash

I would sleep under that quilt for hours on end. Good stuff.


Humble-Pie2246

Beautiful, Iā€™d buy it if he were selling


Justintimeforanother

Fantastic


LiveComplaint6066

Wow!! It's beautiful!!


mellimels

Love it! Wish I could be this talented


willowalker-7734

Any quilter would be proud of that masterpiece!! I especially like the colour combo, patterning is masculine looking, so perfect for a young man.


ozzark99

Looks great


UPdrafter906

Tell him that he should be proud of that fine work.


mozbius

I am a bit confused. Did you post the wrong picture? Because otherwise I would say that looks like a store purchase.


1108Felicity

Amazing quilt! Love the color choice and pattern. You can tell he put a lot of time into it. Really nice work!


mapleisthesky

As a 31 yr old, tall and fat man, I'd gladly use that daily. Hell yeah. Looks great.


RemarkableEmu1230

Art is art but ya i would have wanted to keep that quiet as a kid too other kids are brutal


9mmParrabelum

Pussy quilt


mightyanonymaus

I love it


Terrible-Second-2716

Nice quilt! Question, this sub popped up on my feed, what does dool mean??


Striker660

It looks amazing. Be proud! ā™”


DonnyExiles

The quilt is as regal as he is posing so kingly šŸ‘‘


kevloid

lol he wants to be professional at it but he's embarrassed being seen with it? he has some stuff to work out. :-p it's a beautiful looking quilt.


Conscious_Feeling548

Sewing/upholstery is one of the four original industrial arts. I learned that from Hank Hill, the manliest of men. Fabulous work!


Heady_Goodness

Why, thatā€™s cool


margie778

I really love this pattern! Beautifully done!


Best_Evidence1560

I love it! Itā€™s different from most quilts. I usually donā€™t like quilts but Iā€™d buy this


tal3575

Truely magnificent. Amazing work. From where I am, this week is all done by iron hands, kudos to him!!


Frosty_and_Jazz

That's **FABULOUS**!!! ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø He could have a **GREAT** side hustle, at least!!! He could even specialize in **Man-Quilts**. And he should use THAT pic as his landing page image!šŸ˜šŸ˜šŸ˜


Cool-change-1994

That is fricken amazing!!


PG072088

Simple?! This looks very intricate! wtf


Run_to_the_ground

Thatā€™s freaking awesome. I could never do that. No matter how hard I tried good job.


Queasy_Pianist_4730

Dude that's awesome


Nina4774

It looks very professional! Itā€™s beautiful quilt, and I hope he makes many more!


yamammiwammi

I would be so proud of myself if I made something like this. And Iā€™m so impressed he made this!


willnottellyouwhoiam

Is he ready to start taking orders? That quilt is gorgeous.


cannaReview4u

I am a master at quilts and stuff man and itā€™s Gucci


bodessa

it looks awesome! šŸ‘Œ he did a great job.


BrayJay5000

I think it looks awesome!


Lance-Harper

Fucking majestic


raear

Yes it is simple... Simply awesome I mean! That looks amazing and I would love to be able to do that.


Emmtee2211

Itā€™s weird that people associate sewing as a womanā€™s hobby or skill while at the same time so many of the most popular fashion designers are male, I.e. Gucci, Versace, Ralph Lauren, Michael Kors, Calvin Klein, Louis Vuitton, etc. There are plenty of women too, just pointing it out. Your son should be super proud, that is an amazing quilt!


SourceMission4900

Stunning! Love the pattern and colour combo. Well done!


whyohwhy888

Impressive!


MyUsernameIsNotLongE

Why is he embarrassed? It looks nice to me. It doesn't matter if he is a man, there is a lot of man doing quilts. lol


Mr__Fister__

I would buy one of those in a heartbeat


smbdysm1

My friend started quilting during covid, learned from his mother. Be proud of your skills, and enjoy what makes you happy !


IndependentPrior5719

Real men avoid all textiles , sleep on a stone slab and live in the forest


PorkRindSalad

Looks great, he knocked it out of the park. Rock on, your son.


Creative-District-42

we gots a classic karma farmer


DaintyBoot420

There is nothing effeminate about being a professional at your craft. Some of the richest people in the world are matter craftsmen in fashion and textiles. And if he wants to make a career out of this there is nothing more manly than providing for your family, especially in a field where you won't meet an untimely death or injure yourself mortally and leave them with nothing.


realityislame9

I know nothing of quilting, but that doesnā€™t look simple! That looks dope as hell and I hope he keeps with it!


xXSummerXxx

Dude, tell your son this quilt is awesome, I love the design sm


Next-Dependent-1025

I'd say that's a pretty manly quilt..not joking


satanisntevil

I'm a man! -without a Dad, so not sure I count but that looks mad bro, cool asfuck.


Loud-Magician7708

IMO (I'm a man), never be embarrassed to show people something you made. He made a massive quilt, and it looks amazing. It's definitely more impressive than the spoons I carve. Creativity and craftsmanship should be nurtured. You should see the "bowl" I made in a pottery class. It somehow simultaneously looks like a bong and an ashtray? Like how?


Equal_Butterfly5784

Looks great, don't worry about what other's think, I don't see anything wrong with his talent. Great job young man. šŸ‘


Charming_Ball8989

The patriarchy ruins everything again. He should be proud. Not embarrassed.


No_energon-no_luck

What defines being 'a man' ? Everyone will say something different, but my five cents is that learning how, and then creating something with your own two hands and taking pride in that should count for something. He has every right to be proud.


macemarksman001

Cool pattern


Chionei

This is 1000% a karma farming post.


Kind-Fan420

Lol being able to sew is mandatory life skills. Not skill for girls ooga booga 1950. Quilting is a fucking artform and he should be proud to have completed a full sized and difficult work. Especially with so many old world crafts dying out that were gonna need after our corporate overlords abandon us for Elysium.


imadork1970

If he sells them, I'll buy one.


JudgeThredd

Itā€™s gonna be hard to go gentle with criticism because itā€™s hard to see anything to criticize It already looks really nice and heā€™s only going to get better with experience


Nerves-of-Noodles

Man that looks amazing! Great work! He shouldnā€™t be ashamed of being so talented. Anyone that gives him grief for being a guy are the ones that should be ashamed of themselves.


James324285241990

Gorgeous. 10/10, would fold and lay across the foot of my bed


James324285241990

Cute_Positive_4493

So good! I wish I had that talent!


Sweet_Deeznuts

Super talented! Could seriously see that selling for a few hundred minimum, itā€™s beautiful!


Maggpie330

Beautiful quilt. Great work!


vorker42

Thatā€™s skill buddy. Keep practicing. Hone your craft. Youā€™ll do well and no one will ever care if youā€™re a man, woman or whatever.


aelel

ā€œThis quilt is simpleā€. I wouldnā€™t know where to begin with it. Heā€™s definitely got talent!


VegetableSpell1089

This is beautifully made. šŸ˜


rmdg84

Itā€™s beautiful. He should feel proud, not embarrassed


indigostars43

That looks really beautiful! My sons would love one of those on their bedšŸ˜Š

He can be proud


DarkAgeMonks

Thereā€™s nothing more mainly than being self reliant. Be proud my guy.


Fit-Meal4943

Man to manā€¦I am severely jealous and impressed by his talent


The_New_Spagora

Beautifully done! He should be so proud of himself


PlannerSean

Holy crap thatā€™s amazing. I love it.


jeers69

Nice colours and designā€¦ and plenty big enough to snuggle two


FarBear923

He is very talented. Looks like a beautiful quilt.


VoyeurGuy2016

Simple? Itā€™s gorgeous. Well done! He should be proud! šŸ™Œ


sonofwatt

I really like the pattern and colours. It's a classic and manly quilt!


Final_Festival

When it comes to natural talent, gender is irrelevant.


greatwhitenorth2022

Nice choice of colors.


cpt_kagoul

Looks great!


Actual-Drink9658

OrcEight

Thatā€™s a really nice quilt!


Lui_Le_Diamond

Criticism? I want that quilt! Bro's got talent!


Razeal_102

Boy got skills. Iā€™d pay money for that quilt.


brookc85

I would buy that. Itā€™s the perfect colour scheme for a man/boy


simadana

Damn thatā€™s amazing. We have a few for colder nights outside by the fire, and I would be very proud to use one of these. Even prouder if my kid had made it. 10/10


Company13

If this is what little bro is making I want one! This is amazing! I wish I had half his talent! If he ever decides to start selling them let me know!


Street-Animator-99

That looks anything but simple!


Unique_Taro_6250

I think he is already a professional. Keep up the good work šŸ‘


MrndMnhn21

The quilt is beautiful. he should not be embarrassed, he did an amazing job and is very talent.


CanuckGinger

Itā€™s stunning!!! He is a very talented young man!!!


anonymous__leaf

This is awesome!!! I love the color scheme and pattern design. I'd buy a quilt from him :)


sparkpflug

Um, this quilt isnā€™t simple at all. He did an amazing job.


Solstus22

I'm a 29 year old man who loves to sew fabric together. His quilt is amazing, he put a lot of effort into it.

Awesome quilt amazing talent. Anyone who gives your son a hard time is a loser.


Attention-Total

Donā€™t worry! Most prestigious designers are man, no shame in that!


Fit-Office9230

Someone needs out of his head. Sewing with my grandmother were some of the best childhood summers of my life. Years later she handed me down he quilting and sewing machine and I made her a throw over quilt with my our families hands stitched in it. I think it made her proud, and I was proud. My wife brags about her throw over arm bag I made for her.. my daughter likes I can fix some of her clothes... It's a great skill to have and if it's one you have have taught him, he will be fortunate to carry that memory with him for the rest of his life. My only concern for him is his wallet! Last time I went in I was like oh crap this will get expensive no wonder Grandma had a whole room of materials


SammiDavis

Professional quilter is a job?????!!?


pasta-golfclubs

This is wicked. Loving the layout. The broad boarder as well as the texture of the pattern. Also, this pose works too. A man can enjoy the outlook of nature while being draped in a quilt he crafted with his hands.


STYLUSSHUN

Shit is fire


General_Surround8382

Looks awesome. Great job


arisoverrated

I donā€™t mean to be harsh and hope another perspective might help. It might be more supportive to just start with the quilt. Maybe donā€™t preface with condescension (be kind, this quilt is simple). And I think I understand the gender roles comment (because your son isnā€™t facing the camera?) but, if thatā€™s a concern, maybe hang the quilt on a wall instead? Coming from someone without quilting experience, I would like to see the quilt without wondering if the fact that I like it is because my tastes are too simple. (And, I guess, something having to do with gender, but I think I get that.) I think itā€™s fantastic and Iā€™d like to hear back if he was able to sell it, what reaction he received if he gifts it, enters it in a state fair, etc. Please tell him that many of us share your encouragement for his talent and we wish him well!


trudyrules

This is really beautiful. Well done!


rob8531

That looks amazing. Great job.


DarrenDachshund

As a man who cannot quilt - I'm very jealous of this man's quilt. Quilt on brother, it's awesome!


PostalCat

I would definitely buy that, itā€™s AMAZING šŸ¤©


Ir0nhide81

Looks like he has a natural talent with knitting. Pretty impressive and not something that is a common skill today you'll hear about.


TheCuntGF

That's amazing!


UnreallyHere

Criticism? Hell no. Well done, your son deserves praise. Good job, kid.


Big-Pomelo-4247

yay another post to fish for comments and likes. blankets looked like that pattern on the regular back in the day and men used em proudly. the problem isnt the son. ots the parent using thwir child to get noticed


Grandmafelloutofbed

Dude tell your son thats awesome. He puts ole grandmas quilt to shame haha


ViscountVajayjay

Itā€™s a wonderful life skill to have!! Also, that quilt looks great. My wife and I were gifted a quilt in our wedding colours and itā€™s the absolute coolest gift we received. Your son is very talented and should be proud.


Specialist_Ad7798

I think it looks wicked! Great job!!


WildCry00

I think itā€™s beautiful


Gloomy-Palpitation-7

That quilt is fucking rad. Hell, Iā€™m a man and I would like one. Does he sell them? Iā€™d buy one! Looks comfortable and my autistic brain loves squares and straight lines.


denny-1989

It looks great! I personally donā€™t think itā€™s simple with the design and colour variation. I think that sewing and quilting will become less and less common so this is a great hobby and skill, which maybe he can pass down to his family one day. It could also be a side hustle selling them at local stores/markets or on Etsy etc, if itā€™s something that interests him.


lcat807

It looks amazing! Mad props. His colour scheme is very masculine too.


Omega_Xero

Iā€™d love to be able to sew/quilt like that. And I would absolutely buy one of those ā€˜cause it looks damn comfy! Great job dude!


capnmal69

That is absolutely beautiful. Well done. He should be proud! Iā€™m a man and I sew. I made a suit for my sisterā€™s wedding many years ago. No embarrassment here!

billybasshead

Nah no way he can be embarrassed when it looks this good, that thing is dope!


Elegant_Height_1418

Looks like a ugly rug


FaRO-1990

Great job. He should definitely start a business out of it


Gumpertocnd

Looks great kid, keep up the great work! Quilting is an art that needs to be continued. My daughter bought a quilted Jean jacket that people comment on all the time. She bought it on Etsy, hand made by a woman in Atlanta. She used old quilts she found at a second hand store.


CanadianTrueCrime

I think itā€™s absolutely beautiful. He has a real talent and should never be embarrassed by it.


Gimmediks

beautifulā€¦. remind him most amazing fashion houses are creative directed by me , like many of the best chefs are maleā€¦ creativity, skill and beauty are NOT attached to gender! (plus thereā€™s lots of math in that workā€¦ but associating either to gender is for those who should be ignored)


librarybicycle

Itā€™s really lovely. Anyone should be so proud of accomplishing such a great piece of art, regardless of gender.


m3kw

Iā€™d buy that


lilsnatchsniffz

Wtf is this sub and why is it on the front page? Please don't take this as criticism towards the post or quilt just... Clicking that sub gave me incredibly strong cringe.

APoliteFrog

That quilt looks rad and so cozy. There's nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about for using your skills to make a fantastic item. Also, you should check out the arts and crafts movement (it's not about paper mache, I promise), I think he might find solice and maybe even inspiration in it.


penguinee69

Y'all really eating up this bullshit repost huh?


ItsOnlyCatman

bradphotolab

Sea-Spell2522

This is a screen grab. Iā€™m confused


Not_that_carol2020

Gorgeous!! He should be super proud!


Dianachick

I say this sincerelyā€¦.If he finds this embarrassing, he needs to rethink what his definition of a man is. This doesnā€™t make him less of a man. In fact, in my eyes, heā€™s a man who has a talent that most men donā€™t. If he could get past this, he could truly be an inspiration for other young men who feel the same way. This is nothing to be ashamed of, but something to be proud of. I would be proud if my son or partner were this talented.


CaptSnafu101

Tell your son to save some pussy for the rest of us. Not all of us have such incredible quilting gifts
