Fair enough RN-Quilter. I had an enjoyable day yesterday looking at patterns for you since my own schedule will be tied up with the Bonnie Hunter Mystery starting Friday. I am always looking for quick and effective ideas to showcase large prints and/or can be made from my collections of 10" squares. I have collections where the fabrics fit a theme but don't always play nice with each other, in which case framing the diverse prints and separating them a bit often is a great option. There are many free patterns using squares and rectangles and framing that are perfect for this. Here's one of them --

With a large amount of the focus fabric, you can use it for alternating squares mixed with a traditional block. Sometimes using Snowball shapes (a square where the corners are contrasting) makes a great connector block, as in the Tennessee Waltz, which combines the 54-40 or Fight Block with a snowball.

You can use other Star designs as well, just match the size of your Snowball triangles to the alternating star blocks.

Bear Creek quilting has PAGES (like 84!) of fabric designers show casing fabric collections with free download patterns. There were more, but here are some I thought would work well with your collection (I did a little searching but didn't find any patterns for your line).
