Default Need Help- Pattern Suggestions for Fabric

I found a fabric that I had to have- and of course had to spend hours matching it to other fabrics, then had to buy them all. *Side note: If you ever have the opportunity to fabric shop with Old_Rosebud on here, run away! She will twist your arm and make you spend money.

So now, I can't find a single pattern I want to use to make a quilt. I know I want to go just block-to-block with no sashing. I would like to make a queen sized quilt.

Picture is below-- any suggestions?

Here is the link to the main fabric- http://www.joann.com/keepsake-calico...prd_11853314a/

What beautiful fabric!!! I started to say I didn't have any suggestions, but then I thought of Warm Wishes. It might look really good...

Maybe something like what I made two years ago. Maybe incorporate a light grey and another turquoise, and you'll have six fabrics.
Use your large -scale surrounded by the ivory for block 1 (square in a square); and four other fabrics for block 2 (Indian Star).

I don't have a particular pattern in mind. but.... I would use one, that when the blocks are sewn together forms a secondary all over pattern. your fabrics are beautiful!!!!

Perfect fabrics for Warm Wishes. Here is the free pattern if you don't have it already. Google it and you can find pictures of other ones made if you can't get past the busy fabric on this picture.

Love the colors/fabrics. How about a Disappearing 9-Patch?

I vote for stars. Maybe the print in the center and 2 sets of points. Alter the inner and outer points. One block with red outer and one with blue outer. Love to see what you come up with.

I liked the quilt in the link provided above - the large print would be stunning in that pattern. Love your fabrics!!

Depending on how big the flowers are, maybe a variable star with fuzzy cut centers. JenniePenny your quilt is lovely.
