Does anyone have ideas of what type of quilt construction would really showcase the colors and patterns on this fabric?! Thanks!

How about seahorse squares, with wavy frames, and curlycue sashing? Might look sort of like a fish tank wall at the store?

Take a look at this pattern. THE RIBBON BOX QUILT, is a free pattern and it is really good at showing off the fabrics. I had a lot of fun making one from this pattern for my grand daughter. I will be posting pictures of it as soon as I finish the binding.

Such lovely fabrics you have - look at a "Turning Twenty" or "Fat Quarter Shuffle"

When I looked at all your pretty fabrics I saw a log cabin quilt. Don't know why, but I think that would be a great choice
