I am not enammered with brown but I need to do something with these. Does anyone have any patterns to suggest to use up this mountain of fabric. I am not apposed to adding other fabric to this but I want to use mostly these fabrics. By the way they are all solid colors.
Thank you for any help you can give me. |
Pair the darker brown with pink, blue or another pastel. Make some men's quilts braid style with the rest of it.

I made a cozy log cabin using a dark orange for the "chimney", then all shades of brown, with tans and creams. It remains one of my favorites and I named it Cream Cheese Brownie.

Log cabin with a centre square of turquoise or orange.

I'd add something for accent, like red perhaps, to liven up the mix. If you have a lot of strips, there are some great strip quilts you could do. Check out the Summer In the Park quilt tutorial at Missouri Star Quilting Co.

Some great ideas for you!! I love the Patches and Pinwheels!

Judy Martin's Shoreline Log Cabin. Not for the faint of heart, however. The largest piece is 3.5" long and 1.5" wide. The smallest is .75' long and 1.5" wide. Made it for my MIL, these are her colors.
