I love a Wanda's blog:

http://exuberantcolor.blogspot.com/2...ppy-quilt.html

You can scroll around her site and look at a bunch of her quilts for inspiration.

Thanks to y'all all for all the suggestions! Here is a link to the line of fabric that it is...
http://www.paulanadelstern.com/fabri...ne=Patternista I did buy this from Missouri Star as it was offered as one of their daily deals. I saw it and fell in love with the vivid colors. It also reminded me of some artwork my son had recently created so I knew I had to have it. I really do hope to keep the blocks large to show off the prints with whatever design I go with. Here are a couple of pictures that my son designed on his computer.
As soon as I decided what to do with this layer cake, I'll be sure to let you know! I'm leaning toward the DeNQvo!

How about a square in a square bordered in black. That way you won't loose too much of the print. Look forward to seeing what you decide.

Those fabrics are out-of-this-world beautiful. I think I would not want to cut them up into small pieces for sure.

That looks good to me.

Quiltingcrazy, why don't you use Bubblejet to prepare fabric, iron it onto freezer paper and get your son to print it for you?

I have quite a few of these fabrics in my stash. I think I have a yard of about 6 of them. I can't bear to cut them. I have been trying to decide for quite some time how to best use them. I look forward to seeing what you do with them.

I found a site that has this line and then some! I may have to buy a yard or two to use for borders and what not!

How about a twister quilt using the large twister tool.

I haven't read all the pages of this thread, but I definitely vote for NOT cutting them up into small pieces like the D9P would do. I'd either do this DeNQvo one linked or what one lady called the Potato chip quilt by just sashing these pieces. These are really neat pieces and should shine as they are--
