Or how about a cream floral and some Civil War fabs!
I really like that pattern too (Strip Stacks by G.E. Designs)! I'm including a pic to show the rest of you... the blocks are huge so they sew up quickly and I think the vertical design is really different and eye catching. There are many "not so pretty" scraps hidden in these blocks!
I love ALL of of your ideas - I have been thinking batiks as well as a Christmas version since I already have a bunch of the coins (2.5" x 5.5") needed from a swap I did a few years ago.
