Color photocopiers aren't perfect with every color but they come really close. You can see what the block will look like before cutting into your fabric.

WOW, what lovely colours. My first thought was Dresden Plate, your colours are soooo soft, then I thought D9Patch, but then my heart screams Dresden Plate...sorry, I'm just an old fashioned quilter screaming to get out of this middle-aged body...LOL!

Beautiful fabrics.

Those fabrics immediately brought to mind the soft pallettes of Bunny Hill Designs. Especially this one:

Thank you everyone for your input. As I was going through my patterns, I found the one from Walmart that was made with these fabrics, (I guess I am missing one) but I don't like it. I'm gonna try the scanning onto paper method, and see what I can come up with. The one color isn't orange, I guess it just looks that way because of the picture. It is a rosy color. Thank you again for all your suggestions.

I like simple stars. There are a lot of 8 pointed stars on the Quilters Cache web site that could be made with different combinations.

Card trick might be nice.

You don't have enough for anything. The prints don't go together. They don't match anything in your house.
So you need to pack those puppies up and send them to my house at ..... Seriously, I LOVE these fabrics of yours!!! I like them just as is. Have you seen the stuff Kaffe Fassett puts out?? Contrast is not always necessary. Whatever you make will be so gah-juss I can't wait to see what you make with them. . |
I agree - my thought was bargello. I also love the soft, muted colors without high contrast. Beautiful fabrics!
