Need an easter pattern for a quilt guild "Group" quilt
I'm looking for a pattern to use for my quilt guild monthly block swap and would like a block with an easter theme - prefereably a pieced block rather than an applique. Each month we feature one pattern - every member takes the pattern home and makes one block with whatever fabric they have on hand. Sometimes we use just two or three colors - sometimes "scrappy" -- but the fabrics are always a "surprise"! The following month we all bring our blocks and have a drawing - the winner takes home all the blocks and has a new quilt project to put together! Does anyone has a pattern to suggest - It could be either a fun or religious theme...

how fun that would be
