    Disappearing 9 patches are fun.

    You could do almost 'any' block/quilt. It just take a little imagination. What level would you rank yourself, novice? intermediate? ?? Do your colors fall under ~ light ~ medium ~ dark? If you could share a picture of your fabric, it might give us some better ideas for you.

    I made these 3 colour baby quilts, the pattern info is on the link as well. It's not a free pattern but you could probably figure it out. http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...s-t211867.html

    This is super easy. Go to page two and three to see the different layouts.

    The quilt on the cover of Jennifer Chiaverini's last Elm Creek book is a 3 color easy to do pattern. No matching seams either. I know I have it somewhere, just don't know where at present.

    My favorite three fabric quilt is the one shown on the cover of Lynnette Jensen's September Morning book. Here's a link to it on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/September-Morn...lynette+jensen

    Although it's the cover quilt, it's NOT September Morning, but I can't remember the name without looking. Unfortunately, the book may be out of print now, but since it's a Thimbleberries book, shouldn't be too hard to find if you like it. This is the quilt my dogs are sitting on in my avatar. :-)

    That is nice, so many ways to arrange the block. Wonderful.
