I am such a newbie that I don't have a grasp of all the quilt block names so that I can find what I am looking for.
I want to make a quilt that is fairly easy for a beginner and incorporates several colors. My color scheme is varied shades of purples and blues and I actually have approximately 14 different shades to choose from.
I love a Navaho type design or something geometric that will incorporate a number of these colors. I don't want to do a scrappy, too many tiny blocks to worry with right now plus I want a larger design or one with a lot of strips. I am afraid I can't line up the strips good enough yet to make the quilt look even. I tried that with the Night and Day quilts by Jinny Byer (not sure that is the correct name). Suppose to be a good beginner quilt but way too small and hard to line up the strips.
I tried the various free sites but there are so many blocks on the one, I don't know what to look for since I am not familiar with the names. So far, I have not been able to see the reason for the names of some of these blocks.
Can anyone give me some advise?
