My natural inclination goes towards what I call the "tiny vine-y" basic calicos and I've been trying to broaden my design sense and have been forcing myself to work with/learn to appreciate larger prints. Sometimes that works better than others!
Snowball blocks work well as a way to showcase a large print and can be used in many ways. It is the alternate block in what is called "Tennessee Waltz" where it is alternated with 54-40 or fight. It can be the foundation of an "Around the Twist", you might try searching on those names.
