I can't suggest a pattern but the colors of the batiks are stunning.

I clicked on this wanting to see what a mental quilt block looked like.

I did some batik pinwheels for this quilt I made. I really liked the way they came out. I believe that if you did this with the black, they would really be beautiful. These pinwheels are really easy. I followed the Missouri Star YouTube video and they were a snap. [ATTACH=CONFIG]379405[/ATTACH]

French Braid????

I can see maybe a french braid by color coordinating them like starting with orangiest going to the less orangiest then the blues and purple I don't know about the one that is grayish a lot duller then the others. Good luck! They are beautiful fabrics.

These would also look nice in a trip around the world

I would do something simple with larger pieces. Maybe a brick quilt with the colors arranged diagonally? Put a modern spin on an old, old pattern. Keep the bricks chunkier, 3x6 or 4x8 finished depending on the size quilt you are planning.

I would love to see these in an old fashioned Trip Around the World. I did one with batiks last winter and it turned out real cool. Your fabrics would really blend well starting with the lightest and ending with the darkest. I'm thinking WOW with anything you do with these.

EDIT: Here is the one I did. It takes 3/4 yd. each of eight fabrics and add as many borders as you want.
