How about something like a (not sure if I have the right name) window frame patter with the large print in the pane

I really like Dollyo's suggestion - would be very pretty!

I'm no help because I instantly thought ... handbag with matching wallet, make-up bag and key fob!

I love all her patterns and have made several of them. I find them well written and easy to follow. She always uses lots of coordinating prints, but I can see your fabrics working nicely with this pattern. Just add a some blender fabrics or solids to compliment what you already have.

Oh, this is a great quilt!

Here is the link. http://www.benartex.com/page/tempo-351.htm


Here are some pics from my "Quilt Ideas" folder. I think that I got the pictures from the QB, because this is where I get my best ideas. I don't know who the maker is, so if it's your quilt, please let us know. They were so beautiful, I kept them for inspiration.

Those are lovely quilts. Hope the maker reads this because it doesn't look like he/she used 16 fabrics as the pattern suggested? Would love to know how many fabrics and what sizes were used.

I would use more Oriental fabric and make it as a wall hanging. That way you could see it every day. Hugs

I like the suggestions of Attic window, spanish tiles, and the denovo pattern.
Attic window -fussy cut squares of large print, maybe the small print cathedral window for the light side and a darker fabric that is in the same hue or tone of the pink or green in the large print and the larger print of c.window in the boarder, maybe pieced with leftovers of the other two fabrics and fabric from window side.

I also like the ones IBQLTN mentioned that were posted by KrisP in #31 the Spanish tiles and the post of Dollo in #37 De Novo

Adding in other fabrics if needed to get the look you want.

I hope I get to see the post of your finished project!
