Pattern/block suggestions for marble fabrics?
I've been picking up marble fabrics over the last year or so since I saw this pattern (http://quiltwoman.com/Marble-Pools-Quilt-Pattern.aspx) and thought that's what I wanted to make for our new bed quilt. However, the last couple times I've looked at it, I haven't liked it nearly as much as I did before.
So, now I'm in the market for a new pattern or block that will go well with all this marble fabric I've amassed, since I think I'm close to ready to begin. I'd prefer it to be all pieced, little or no applique, something modern or high-tech looking, that works with lots of really bright colors. Any suggestions? |
hidden wells is a good one. i have made a few of them. good for strip peicing. it is similar to the pattern u have been looking at already.

what has changed? Is the pattern to simple now?

I love this and plan to try it with Americana fabric but would work with any. judy j

I've always liked stars made out of marble fabrics on a solid background.

If you like paper piecing what about something like this http://www.quiltworx.com/patterns/
or maybe a bargello http://www.lockwoodquilts.com/store/...lo_quilts.html also check out some of his strip pieded quilts |
This one is bright colors, but mey not suit what you've collected so far.
