    Could I please get a few suggestions for patterns which use three fabrics? Thank you!

    A 9 patch is a great one for 3 fabric's. All squares tube quilting is another one, there is a tutorial on the board for it. The ten minute block.
    That's all I can think of right now. :-)

    Hi, my name is Leni Levenson Wiener. I have just written a book called 3-fabric quilts which will be in stores sometime this September. The book contains 12 quilt patterns that are all made from just three fabrics each. Lots of great inspiration!

    Watch my blog and my site www.leniwiener.com for more information and a free book giveaway when it is available.
