Perhaps do an easy pattern like a shadowbox, and let the fabrics do the work for you.
Thanks! Lots of good ideas. I'm thinking that BBQ = Ketchup, mustard and relish...tomato red, mustard yellow and pickle green. (I'm hungry already!) Dragonflies are a nice idea too. Going easy is a great idea. Think of all of the scraps one could use up in a hurry. No batting, no quilting, sew the top in one day and bind it the next day. Easy peasy!
