REALLY... wow, do you have any pic's?

I did have pictures but were deleted, at some point I start deleting photos from my documents so as not slow down the speed and storage on my PC.
As a matter of fact, I mailed out some scraps to a member on here and a large piece of that blue was included with her scraps.
Coincidental.

I think I'd go toward an Asian pattern. That's nice fabric.

I like Take 5 and add the aqua and yellow to it.

I think that butterfly in the round would be wonderful.

You could do a Turning Twenty. It takes big blocks.

I vote for Take 5. :)

How about a column quilt where you use a strip of fabric, as wide as you want, say 12", the length of the quilt, and then a column of say, flying geese in the coordinating colors, then another strip of fabric etc...

oh wow! I have a small piece of that fabric and treasure it. I don't remember where I got it but I just love it. I used a little on the back of a small quilt(made it back around 85) and just can't cut into the rest. lol How nice that you picked it up at a flea market.It is a vintage material btw. Not new . even though the colors are right up there with the ones floating around today. Enjoy!!

here is a photo which might help explain what I mean

Do you think that would work with only three colors?

Yes, I definately do think it would work with just 3 colors because there is so much "color" in the large print. Lay the two colors around the print and see what you think.

what about those 10 minute blocks, alernating the lilac and tan for centers?
