Default Looking for Quilt Pattern Ideals for Bunny Garden Fabric. Thanks.

I need to make a quilt ASAP (Before Spring ends) out of this Bunny Garden Fabrics! The quilt will be used outside to sit, play and lay in the garden. Thanks

What great fabrics to use together! I'd like to see the bunny fabric in a larger focus square and scrappy the others around it. I'm not sure how the light pink would work unless you fussy-cut the bunnies. Are those two pieces directional? If so, be careful how you place them if it matters in your final project.

Without a lot of web surfing, Disappearing 9 patch comes to mind, using the darker bunny fabric in the corners so they don't get sliced up. It's a quick one, too.

I looked up Disappearing Nine Patch and found a YouTube Video [h=1]Disappearing Nine Patch Quilt Block Tutorial Quilt with a Scalloped Border that I think would look so cute with the Gray Bunny Fabric as the large focus block as you suggested and also as a wide scalloped border. I'll mess around with the pattern and I'm thinking maybe the pink fabric for the center (cut) squares?[/h]

I think you could use the row by row method since you are using it outside. I would not put a lot of work into it and I think it would be easy to wash. What is left over of the darker fabric I would piece and use for the back. Good luck.

Just finishing up some D9P quilts for the Children's Hospital. Used 10" layer cake. Your fabrics would be great. I'd suggest a center block be another pink, or lime, or orange. Makes a finished block 30" Only need four blocks to make a 60" quilt. Sew a 9-patch, cut through the center of the block in both directions and rotate the pieces. Good luck, the ones I made were fun an quick.

I want to hug it. I have made a few Warm Wishes, and that's fast and good for featuring cute fabrics. Disappearing 4 patch would be another possibility.

Default I bought a green fabric.

Thank you for your replys. I went shopping yesterday and bought a green fabric (that's not the Michael Miller Bunnys Garden Fabric) but matches the green shade.
