I know of "Warm Wishes" and even "D9P" but are there any other quilts that I could make when using a novelty print? When our local Wal-Mart started to clearance out their fabric department, I picked up a lot of "Littlest Pet Shop" fabric for my girls. It showcases some cute little pets but I'm not sure about the best way to put it into a quilt. Are there any other quilts that you can think of that would showcase a fussy cut pet?

Snowball block would look great.

What about one of the star patterns,and fussy cut the focus fabric for the centers

look through quilt pics, any block that has a big center would work

I have the same problem with a sports quilt I want to make for someone. I am thinking the Ohio Star in different sizes on the layout.

I used a really simple 4-Patch pattern to make a music quilt for my granddaughter. I used the focus fabric in 6 inch squares and paired them with smaller 3-inch complementary fabric in a polka dot pattern because that's what she chose. So I had a black background with white polka dots and white background with black polka dots and for the focus fabric I used 8 different music-patterned fabric that she chose and it came out really nice. I am in the process of quilting it now. Very simple and very fast to put together.

9 patch pizzazz

This is my favorite pattern when I don't want to cut the fabric in small pieces. Plus it's quick and easy!

I just finished one called "just can't cut it"! Wonderful- fun, fast and most of all easy (as I am new to quilting). You use your focus fabric and 5 others to go with. Mine was butterflies and I picked out the colors in them. You use 12" focus as 1 square and put 2 rectangles and 3 squares together to make another square ( comes out to 12" also). and repeat. would be glad to share pattern.

One of the BQ quilts is awesome..
