Oh, and I don't want to make a bargello (too mans tiny pieces). I am thankful for every idea.

I'd like to say in the kindest way I can, you need to add some prints to this grouping. The same pattern in different colors is just so........Take these with you and go shopping - the girls in the shop will have a great time too. Remember it isn't always about color. There is value and these fabrics need something to play off of. Now that's my opinion. Amish have been doing plain fabrics forever and people love them, but I don't like Amish quilts. I love scrappy quilts and that might not be to your liking.
