For brights, this is one of my personal favorites. Just watch for contrast, I don't love the last block in the first row because of contrast, I did love the fabric LOL

If you could find a nice girlie panel and then build it to the correct size you need with blocks or strips. The current rage is the Frozen panel with Elsa and Anna on. I know my 2 year old granddaughter is mesmerized by anything in the Frozen theme. Good luck.

Your fabric is awesome. My suggestion is alternating a four patch block next to a solid. It can be put on point. It can be sashed between blocks
I just put quilt four patch on point in search images:

[QUOTE=RosieQ;7062405]I decided to do the Moda Bakeshop Lovely Lattice quilt with the Spring House line from Moda. I can't wait for the fabrics to get here! It might turn out to be a bit more green than I originally intended, but I really like the prints and I think they'll compliment her room still.

This would make a very happy quilt. Also pinwheels in any color is also very nice from scrappy to just a color or two combined with your basic white or a white on white. I gravitate to a simpler color scheme though.

Sorry, I can't post a picture, because it's at my friend's house. She's making the label for it.

I just looked this up and added it to my Amazon wish list. Looks like fun, and I love magic!
