Tuesday Morning in my area (SoCal) still has the Big Block Quilts book and a book that deals with fabric you can't cut (can't remember the name). You might try the store in your area and see if they still have them.

Several years ago the ladies over at QOV were all a' buzz over a book called Just Can't Cut It (by Pamela Mostek) to use with fabric that had large patterns. I got it (I had some pin-up girl fabric that I didn't want to hack up) & it's fabulous!

I really like the idea of a whole cloth quilt - cutting up the fabric to me destroys the beauty of the fabric. Good luck with your choice and don't forget to post a picture of the finished quilt.

I have a book - Supersize 'Em! 22 quilts from oversized blocks by Debby Kratovil. It contains fabulous patterns that are beautifully illustrated and easy to understand. It was published by Martingale & Company in 2009 so still should be available somewhere. Happy quilting.

You could purchase this pattern. Looks like a great way to use a large piece of fabric.

I had some fabric I couldn't cut, and one of our guild members showed me a quilt she called a "cheater quilt." I sort of copied it, and I am very happy with the results. Perhaps just bordering it, like I did, would work for you?
