    Ideas - applique brown monkeys onto cream fabric. Alternate blocks with a green/brown/cream pieced block.

    Use a focus fabric (see below) and alternate with a pieced 2 or 3 color block that coordinates with the focus fabric.

    I used the QuiltShops.com meta search and found these prints. I've only listed each print once. I'm not recommending any of the stores, just using the link as a reference to show you the prints I found. Other stores may (or may not) have a better price and/or shipping policy.

    Not the cutest print, but:

    Wow!! You guys are amazing. I thought my biggest problem would be to find suitable fabric. Now my big headache is picking one! And a pattern! Thanks! What would a nine patch with 3 or 4 of those fabrics and a brown and a green? Too much??? I am trying to think simple, as I am brand new to quilting
