    Default What pattern should I do?

    Any ideas on what kind of a pattern I should go with on these fabrics? This is the hardest part, picking out the material and pattern. Any help would be appreciated.

    You have select a really nice selection of ecrus to browns. I would look for a pattern that have piece triangles in them such as Old Maid's puzzle, Bear Paw or flying geese such as in Wild Goose Chase. I have pulled fabric years ago similar to your to do the Wild Goose Chase. Pattern is somewhere in my magazine collection. PM if interested and I will try to find it.

    Love your fabrics, what ever pattern you decide on it will be beautiful when finished. I am working on a "Maddie Bea's" quilt using some of the same fabrics.

    I have a large piece of that gorgeous fabric on the right. I haven't decided what to do with it either. I googled images of brown quilts - some great ideas there! https://www.google.com/search?q=brow...w=1067&bih=628

    You are right it is hard to decide on a pattern. But, how about a log cabin? Or a basket block quilt would be fun too with all the browns you have. Quilters cache.com has tons of freebie patterns for them.

    Not knowing your yardages is really hard to give suggestions.

    Just seeing the fabrics, and my mind goes to a lovely log cabin quilt (with a few more medium/darks added to it)
