Ideas???

hmmmm.... I think I would stick to a simple quilt pattern and use India themed fabrics, such as paisleys, filigrees, mandalas and such. The fabric patterns would tend to be busy and bold colors, hence why I would stick to a simple quilt pattern so the fabric can shine. ....I'm a beginner quilter and don't really know what I'm talking about, so take this advice with a grain of salt!

I saw a quilt recently that had large dresdens scattered, with some overlapping. They would look like mandalas if made from batiks. Try searching pinterest for dresden plate quilts - it's probably where I saw it.

I did a little searching and most of what I found was that a lot of quilts in India are made from old saris. They also have quite a bohemian look them.

Here is another great video on quilts of India. About 10 minutes and worth it.
