Jo Ann Fabrics has some beautiful great quality fall fabrics with great leaves of color that would make a great fussy cut block to use these fabrics with and use your coupons!!!!

how about some purples

If you have enough of one of the light fabrics, save it for backing. I love the orange and the colorful leaved, the gold will work, but i don't love it. Having said that, there have been times when the fabric I didn't absolutely love is what "made" the quilt - and I'm color challenged, so what I see isn't necessarily correct!

Have fun, that's the main thing!

I would treat the small prints on cream as background fabrics and use all different bright colours for a Autumn leaf quilt. If you want to piece, there are lots of Maple leaf patterns available. I might be tempted to use the small prints for background squares and appliqué a bright Maple leaf down but with the dark shadow on the one side so it appears to float. Great fabrics and it looks like you have enough for several projects.

Gaga- I think that would be perfect. I just bookmarked it to use for a quilt I have to make this fall. Thanks. Good luck Quilt4u

I agree with Boston. Very pretty fabrics. (preferably rich rusty brown)
Actually, I think those you pictured are perfect.

I agree with Gaga's choice of pattern. Your fabrics would look great in it. Do you have any other mediums or darks in your stash? And, again, you don't have to use all those lights in one quilt.

I don't like the gold on the upper right. How about some darker shades of green?

I think all the colors you added really will make it pop. Nine patch, or just squares with a bright border. But that's my taste. Have fun whatever you decide.

A rust with a green will work, good luck
