Some of the fabric on the bottom look like African material. I am in the process of making a quilt with African cloth. I am using the "snowball" pattern as then I can get the benefit of the cloth design with a plain material setting it off. I haven't finished it yet, but I think I am going to reqally like it.

Wow ! They are beautiful.

I've been contemplating doing Around the Twist with big snowball blocks to showcase some floral fabric that's not nearly as nice as yours!

Bags and more bags!! (my favorite activity.)

They are so very beautiful.

I was thinking BQ quilt too. It showcases the fabrics so well.

I suggest you look at a couple of Kaffe Facett's quilt books. He uses very busy and bright fabrics together to create stunning effects. You might get some ideas there.
