    You might look at the Gee's Bend quilts for inspiration too.

    I've made 2 PaintBox quilts in different color schemes, great patterns. Check her "favorite links", too, there are some very nice sites for free (and purchase) patterns for quilts and small items with tutorials.
    Some awesome quilts, Thanks...
