new fabric, no ideas
I just purchased 5 new fabrics. Love them. But I do not know what to do with a set of 3 of them. One is by Penny Rose called Olivia, Which is the name of my youngest daughter. This piece has a large print of flowers on it. I want to keep the flower intact. I also bought a orange and a teal green to go with it. I would also like to use a cream to match. All solid. Anyone have any ideals? The other 2 are by a new line of fabric to me, it is STOF fabric love the feel of this. I plan to make Christmas stockings and place mats for my other daughters new house. It is tan.cream with a little gold and deer that are gray. I know that is a odd color combo. But this is what she used in her house.(minus the gold)It is really amazing together.

Maybe a Warm Wishes pattern?

What level of difficulty? There are tons of options & knowing the amount of intricate piecing you're willing to take on would help.
|
I was going to mention children's patterns until I read further on and realised your daughter is older than that. A picture of the fabric may help to decide patterns. My idea would be disappearing 9 patch.

Jenny Doan on Missouri Star Quilt Co. has wonderful tutorials for you to choose from....I go there daily to see what great ideas she has come up with....have fun with your quilt...
|
There are so many patterns out there and it really depends on the level of difficulty you want to deal with. I go and search thru Google Images and find a lot of patterns I want to make. If you want simple, Warm Wishes is my go to pattern especially with charity quilts.

For the large flower print I really like the BQ2 pattern but I see In Step and BQ4 look like they would work well too. They are patterns by http://www.mapleislandquilts.com/quiltpatterns.asp

Thanks to all that replied. Have made warm wishes, also made a BQ2 really like that one for big prints. Great ideal. Thank you so much, sometimes I just need a little advise.
