Default Michael Miller Aqua Red collection.

Has anyone worked with the turquoise/pink/red/white Eiffel tower print? If so, what did you do with it? I love it so much but I am struggling with contrasting colors and choosing a block that won't take away from the print.

Sometimes simpler is better. What if you alternate a large solid block of the Eiffel tower with pieced blocks in some of the coordinating colors and add in some white?

That is what my back up plan was.

Get this book "9-Patch Pizzazz" by Judy Sisneros - this is great for big patterned fabric or fabric that you want to highlight and is easy to do. I made two quilts from this book and loved them.

There are so many patterns that you can do with large pieces of fabric. So, if I really liked it, I'd buy it!!
