A while back I read an article about men's color choices -- you can see it at:
Hi Polly,
Could you just ask him his favorite colors? I know you want it to be a surprise but if he is anything like all the men I've ever known he will think you are asking simply because he is the most interesting person on earth and never guess the question has anything to do with fabric.

Whatever Bob Villa is wearing. If he's outdoorsy, add green. If he tells you he loves blue ( the only color my son will buy for himself
-- I sneak in and put other colors in his closet from time to time) or purple or gray or orange, believe him and use as much as you can stuff into a quilt. The only thing I'd stay away from is pastel.

Certainly wouldn't work for me. The colours I wear tend to be earthy, not the sort of thing I'd ever put in a quilt or want to have in a quilt I used. Okay, the shirt I'm wearing in the last picture on this page is an exception:
Maybe matching people's choices in furniture or cars might work better?
