I made the quatrefoil pattern Gramma Mary suggested using the lilac fabric in the MSQ tutorial and my friend made one with the poppy fabric and it was stunning. We worked on them together at quilt retreat and it was fun to see them made up in the different fabric lines.

Beautiful fabric. I don't think disappearing nine patch would do it justice at all. It's a fun pattern but doesn't have anyplace for the eye to rest and these prints need to be noticed; individually and collectively. Maybe a simple "Lady of the Lake" with placmente of the blooms so they are showcased?

The fabric is gorgeous. Jenny Doan on MSQC did a tutorial using that fabric line, so I would go to MSQC, and she also had a tutorial on this line of fabric and showed quilts made with these fabrics from the fabric company, absolutely gorgeous quilts. Check it out.

You might like to have a look at "Around the Twist, A Celtic Twist Block Pattern", I have recently purchased some lovely fabric featuring Dahlias which is too nice to cut, after much searching on the web I found this pattern, it is a free download.
