    My sister is very basic in her colors. I want to do a simple quilt for her. I am new to quilting and not very experienced, so I can't do alot of the difficult patterns. She likes minimalist stuff. here are my colors. any suggestions?

    There will be lots of other opinions but I'm thinking Warm Wishes pattern with the yellow being the focal fabric.

    You can download a free pattern from this site.

    OOps, didn't see the cut size of the floral, maybe this will till work. Just have to adjust the block with the 3 strips to the same size. If you need help pm me.

    Just saw this thread by lrdesigns where she is posting the directions to a new design she did and it's free.

    Here's the link to her thread which has a link to her website and there is a link in there to the pattern. Looks like a fun one.

    You could use 4" of white in the middle and two inches of green and tow inches of blue on the sides. The 8 inches doesn't have to be divided by three evenly...although that's how I usually do Warm Wishes, but not always.
