    I think that if you did the circle pattern that uses 4 quarters, with two colors in each quarter you could arrange them into a nice wall hanging.

    If you could afford to supplement her choices, add a few more coordinating FQ's and make a bargello. They never fail to amaze the non-quilter.

    {quote} use the solid red for background then make flowers with red print and black print using zebra for steams of flowers and zebra for a thin border.[/quote]

    I really like this idea :thumbup:

    I think I will try the red background with flowers out of the print fabric and stems with the zebra then bind it with the zebra. I do need practice on applique. Will post when done. Wish me luck.....

    im in the process atm of making an entire quilt of black and white and red im doing lg log cabin squares and cutting them in 4 pieces and reattaching them together. my neice picked it out the pattern is called shadows. its a bit modern for my taste but shes young it seems to fit her. you can see it at www.marlousdesigns i think but i bought it at a shoppe somewhere. lol she loves zebra print not sure for how long cause i plan to back it in zebra print )))) and also make a couple of pillow cases to go with it.

    I think OBW pattern would look great , with an Asian girl with cut out girl in black in the middle, then use the white 2" trim, then last the zebra pattern for the trim out side, well that is my thought when I saw the fabric..
