    Beautiful fabrics. I agree with Iceblossom about making the squares and then a framing contrasting fabric. That would be a very pretty soft colored quilt. Good luck to you and please share on what your decision is.

    The pink tones with white and gray seems to be a very favorite combo as you'll see from most of the following links. My personal favorite, though, is the last link with the offset of lace - mmmmm!

    Thank you all for brainstorming with me on quilt patterns for low volume fabrics. I am so use to working with light, medium and dark fabrics or very bright. I appreciate the links and pattern ideas to wrap my head around how these fabrics look in a quilt.

    What are your thoughts using these fabrics in the Seaside quilt pattern found at the link below?

    What sweet colors for a baby! I think any pattern would look good. I can picture a star pattern with different star centers and points. Please post a picture when you’re done.

    I saw this on Instagram today and thought it would be gorgeous with your fabrics. And you could choose a secondary and a tertiary pale color for the sashing (aqua & yellow in the example) to give it a little oomph. Search #chamomilequilt on Instagram for more examples of the same pattern.
