Default How do you find that right pattern after you have the fabric?

Three years ago I purchased a collection of seven coordinated fabrics to make a queen size quilt for our bed. I love the fabric, but I have yet to come across the perfect pattern! By perfect, I mean that I really want to use all seven fabrics. I have seen many patterns that I like, but they call for just three fabrics, four, or five. Or maybe ten! I have over five yards each of three of the fabrics, and a yard each of the remaining four fabrics. That has to make something, right? I am at a loss.

I want to avoid that scrappy quilt look, since that's what I tend to make. I wish I could find a site where I could type in the number of fabrics I have and patterns would pop up that match!

Any advice would be appreciated.
