I dearly love a pretty toile! One idea is to use the toile as an alternate on point block and border, as below:

I saved a picture long ago of a simple pattern that I think would be beautiful in toile. I don't have a link, but I can try to describe it: it has very large squares in a square (I would guess at least 12 in.), with the inner, on-point square being the toile, and the surrounding triangles being a blender in the toile color. Then there is a sashing comprised of rectangles of the toile surrounded by thinner strips of cream on either side, along with cornerstones of the toile and cream.

What gorgeous quilts, KalamaQ!
