Think something like a bunch of each a different color ohio star blocks scattered on the same or several alternating backgrounds?
"Modern" is more how you use a pattern, than how long a pattern has been around!

She showed me awhile back that she likes the "Thinking Outside the Box pattern". Would these fabrics really work with that though? If she likes a more "modern" pattern and these fabrics won't really work with the TOTB...what other design options would you recommend for consideration?
Any ideas are truly welcomed and appreciated. BTW, she's pretty easy to please so if you can think of ANY pattern that would look nice in these fabrics please don't hesitate to let me know.
Thanks so much! Karen
