I went to JoAnn's today and fell in love with this blue/yellow/green corn flower print. I'm not sure if I picked well with the other prints. I bought 2 yards of the white print, one yard of the yellow and what was left on the bolt of the blue,1.694yards.
Opinions appreciated.

Just couldn't wait to get something so I could try my hand at this quilting thing. lol
I figured I'd start out with a simple block, any suggestions?

You did great picking out your fabric, very pretty. If you have never quilted before a simple pattern is called: warm wishe, I'm sure you can google it or even check the tutorials on the board for options, have fun with whatever you decide an share a photo when you finish. I would love to see your creation.

Your combinations are great. What kind of easy pattern are you looking for? Are you up to half-square triangles? A basic star would be nice, try patterns at http://quiltville.com or http://quilterscache.com. If you want to do the same theme block over and over again,do quiltville, if you would like to do a sampler, go to quilterscache, and there are plenty of easy patterns, including paper piecing, applique, and plain old block construction, and the directions are really easy, and there is also a lot of patterns that are easy on the tutorial section of the board. Good luck.
