    that is really pretty fabric, no idea what to make with it tho, Pamesue's idea of BQ2 is good idea, nice big block to show off the fabric.

    Benartex Floral Trails is my choice for a similar large floral print. The company also has a new one not yet released with large stripes that looks.good.http://www.benartex.com/uploads/Imag...oraltrails.pdf

    I like Sassylass's design. Did you make that up out of your head or was it a pattern?

    There is a real easy 4 patch kaleidoscope pattern called Short Stack available thru Piecing Harmony out of New Hampshire. They can be reached at [email protected] or by phone at (603)735-4100. I have made several quilts from this pattern and never tire of it. Use the roses in the 4 patch and your other fabrics as setting triangles - I think you'll like it!

    I have no pattern name or anything, but I do have an idea. What if you made something to look like a trellis/lattice work and have the roses in between the blocks and then maybe applique some of the roses strategically onto the lattice? Sort of like the roses are growing onto the trellis/lattice work.

    Just an idea. :-D
