Google Fonts Improvement Project: Quicksand /r

With the blessing of Quicksand's designer, Andrew Paglinawa, I'm developing improvements to the Google Font Quicksand on various fronts.

The general direction of Quicksand's improvements:
• Space Quicksand as a display typeface.
• Add weight between Reg and Bold master.(will require the Reg weight to be lightened to create enough of a visual jump)
• Increase the x-height of the Bold master
• Introduce slight contrast to strokes. (To remove the "Dipped in Chocolate" look)
• Introduce alternates based on the bauhaus style, which this design is quoting.
