No need for batting as your fabrics are thick.

My first thought was squares in rows but half offset for next row.

My first thoughts were a vest and a nice big bag to match , team it with a pair of jeans or trousers and you would look great .

I love your fabrics, so whatever you decide on will be wonderful.

I think that ragging for corduroy would result in a huge mess and other than that, I have no idea what would be a "good idea".

Lots of 2 color quilts out there. My personal favorite, yes, I'll say it again LOL is the simple 9 patch with snow ball. This particular one is 6.5" snowballs and 2.5" 9 patch.

Scrumptious fabrics ~ I see just simple alternating blocks as a top.

Colors are wonderful, my first though was a rag quilt, and if it is not too cold where you are no batting. Let us see what you do with it. Maybe a rag quilt with the colors alternated so both side are about the same.
