Consider something in red, white and blue, maybe based around a beautiful panel. One of the first quilts I made for an auction brought in quite a bit of money about 10 years ago. I used a pieced flag design center--sorry no pattern because I designed it with fabric no longer available. I think what sold it was hand quilting (red on white) the pledge of allegiance in the final border. Nowadays I would embroider it. It was wall quilt and bidding escalated to $250 if I remember right because several men wanted it for their offices. Remember that was years ago and quilts were going for less. I agree your daughter needs a talking to, but I'm glad she's proud of your work.
