I was thinking same thing. Love that pattern and all the fabrics can be incorporated easily. I'm betting it would give an illusion that it's moving.

I used the M*QC Slice of Life pattern when I wanted to showcase my fabric. Very easy and I loved the finished quilt. Pattern is in Block magazine, issue 4, late summer.

In the middle, the blues, the one with the metallic is in this quilt. Simple but I love it, it was made for someone very special.

I would do something that shows the beautiful fabrics in their color entirety, like this pattern:

Bring back an oldie (sort of). A turning 20 would be fabulous in these fabrics.

I love Laurel Burch fabrics too; but I am afraid I don't have the perfect block/pattern for you. Whatever you do it will be an awesome quilt with those great fabrics.

I am kind of seeing a modified trip around the world; maybe with the blocks a little bigger so the seahorse fabric is big enough to show well. Or perhaps using all the other fabrics and using the seahorses as multiple borders.

This is delicious fabric and I wish I had the problem of owning it and figuring out how to use it!!!
