I like one of soccertxi suggestions, Warm Wishes pattern was the first thing that entered my head when I saw the fabric. The fabric lends itself to different color variations.

Four Patch Posey would be nice in that, and much easier than a design with triangles. You can test it with Windows Paint. Here are a couple of examples from your print.

Make a Hawaiian shirt to quilt in. With 3.5 yards you would have enough!

I think it would be perfect for a OBW. Here are two examples, using your fabric. The first one is 3.75” triangles and the second is 6.5” triangles.

Stack and Whack is what I thought about just looking at this beautiful fabric.

My first impression was a Hawaiian shirt. Stack and Whack is a very good suggestion.

I think the stack and whack would cut off the birds heads.

Wow! I'd love to have that fabric. I love Parrots.
