I like the chevron idea.........you could use solid colors that go with these fabrics if you need more strips.

I think those pretty fabrics would look good as hexagons. You could add a few plain mauve hex's and some white, and a mauve border. I don't know how big those daisies are, but if large I would fussy cut to mostly use the colour sections.

Fat quarter shop.com has a tutorial on you tube that is called rick rack paddy whack that these would look good in. It is a snowball quilt with some borders around it and then set with large rick rack. REALLY cute. I think they have a link to it on their site.

Thank you so much.....that is really cute....maybe i could get two quilts out of the fabric !!

Here's one I made of 30s fabrics. It's a pattern I designed that could be bowties for boys or hairbows for girls.

I was thinking tumblers, pinwheels, Something more on the neutral side. Then a green or yellow border or if enough, piano key border in colors or green or yellow.
