What pattern?
 
Today I had an opportunity to purchase a bundle of Maywood Studio fabrics at an estate sale-- some from the Basically Beautiful line : peach, bone , sage greens, rusts, creams, dark browns, some muted solids, some polka dots, some small prints. There are 19 different fabrics in the bundle and each has been cut as if it was for a certain pattern. Each fabric piece had a had written pinned tag that described the yardage.
I know this is a long shot but the QB family are awesome and someone might know what pattern the dimensions might belong to. .... or ideas for a pattern to use these fabrics
Here are the 19 fabrics:
15 inch wol
4 inch wof
13 inch wof
30 inch wof
1/2 yd
12 inch wof (1/3 yd)
12 inch wof (1/3 yd)
13 inch wof
1 yd
1 yd
1 and 1/3 yd
1 and 3/8 yd
22 inch wof
21 inch wof
1/4 yd
15 inch wof
15 inch wof
15 inch wof
20 inch wof

thanks so much,

Unfortunately, I have no idea the answer to your question but wanted to comment on how beautiful the fabrics work together! Whatever you choose to do I'm sure it will be wonderful! Good luck with solving your mystery :)

no pattern ideas--but it could be that he previous owner was just labeling her stash amounts. I did that one year with my Christmas fabrics in prep for some projects.

The fabrics were all tied up with a ribbon that many quilt shops use in the area. So it makes me think the owner may have purchased it during a harvest festival .

I vote for just a conscientious former owner labeling it for your convenience, or hers. Lucky you!

Perhaps if you called some of the shops in the area they may remember having this bundle for sale and if it was for a specific quilt.

Lovely fabrics. If it was me I would just pick a pattern and go for it.

Add a few more neutrals and try one of Bonnie Hunter's scrappy quilts. She has lots of free patterns on the Quiltville sight.

Lets see, multiple lights for the background, greens, brown, red, are secondary and then other red, coral, black, gold, for pops of color. You only have 4"x wof of black. You might could get 40 to 42, 2" squares of black. That could be sashing squares or centers of something like a 9 patch or log cabin. Quite the puzzle you have there! I would have fun cutting into that and coming up with something. Nice find!
