I would like a pattern to use with this fabric. I can fussy- cut or not and can use coordinating fabrics ( suggestions for co-ord. fabrics are welcomed). The 'doily' flower areas measure about 4.5 " square and I can get 45 good fussy-cut pieces.
Looking forward to your ideas for this. ranger |
One block wonder?
|
Any one with a solid center block, maybe an Ohio Star?
Please post a picture when you decide. D |

Beautiful fabric keep us posted

Warm wishes would be pretty.

check out the site LavenderLime quilt shop in Chatt. TN. They have a great easy pattern that shows off 10 inch square that would be quick and easy for this pattern.

Thanks. |
Warm Wishes with this fussy cut as the center block
|
love the fabric
|
No idea but like the fabric. Very pretty.
|
The fabric is beautiful. I would probably just have to look at it for a year or two.lol
|
What if you leave it whole and practice free-motion quilting in and around the designs?
Or....cut out the nosegays and applique them to another square. Then set them on point with sashings in the bright pink? You could incorporate the little flower bouquets into cornerstones or into the border. It's really pretty fabric and hope you'll post a photo with whatever you decide to do. Karen |
I have no idea what pattern to use, but I found it humorous that this fabric appears to be the same colors as the quilt in your avatar. I'm drawn to the same colors over and over again too. :)
|
Warm Wishes seems to be calling your fabric!
|
I see BQ2
|
Beautiful fabric. Would like to see what you make with it.
|
Pretty fabric but I don't know.
|
One Block Wonder or Stack and whack would be really pretty
|
that's beautiful fabric. I'm sure whatever you decide to make will be beautiful!!
|
Ohio Star gets my vote too. Keeps the beauty of the flowers and accents the colors. The smaller flowers can be used as cornerstones to a sashing.
|
Kaliedoscope / stack and whack?
|
I love a OBW
|
If you decide you don't want this fabric for some reason I'll take it off you hands. I love it.
|
Gorgeous fabric. No suggestion for pattern but can't wait to see it finished.
|
beautiful fabric. I'm so new I don't have any suggestions for you but I'm sure that you will come up with something awesome.
|
no idea but to say that is pretty !
|
square in a square on point?
|
Absolutely gorgeous fabric, love the colors. I for sure could never cut this into very small pieces. I would have to come up with a quilt pattern using large pieces. Maybe the 10 minute blocks using 10" squares.
|
I'm thinking Warm Wishes, as well.
|
OBW or Warm wishes. Anything els you can think of accent those gorgeous flower clusters. Some accent colors may be a pink (slightly lighter than in the print), the green and a purple to match the flowers.
What ever you decide is going to be beautiful! |
Charlestown circle.
|
Something like Bridal Bouquet. Eleanor Burns has something like it
|
Although all the other suggestions would be great too, I would love to see this done in the "four patch pansy" pattern, like in this album.
http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/...48565311ADYSQl Be sure to look through the entire album ~ there are some FABULOUS quilts there, and the pattern is SUPER easy!! |
Where did you get the fabric? It is really beautiful.

I see HEXAGONS; Select 3 or four greens, light-med-dark, plus a couple pinks, plus a dark moody color for your complementary fabrics. Use 2-inch wide strips to wrap each doily design, which will enlarge each block to about 8 inches. I'll add a photo.

I would take a long ruler and cut on a diagonal right through the centers of all the large nosegays. Then I would cut squares from all of those strips, again, right through the centers of the large nosegays. Then take sashing and reconnect them so the quarter circles of large nosegay form a wedge in all four corners of my block. Simple and it would look great!

The fabric is so beautiful, keep the pattern simple to show it off. Maybe cut the large motifs out and use them for raw edged applique over a 4 patch of some delicate pink print and a silver on white print. Use a coordinating green for sashing.
use the small motifs as raw edged applique on a border. Don't line them up - just arrange them randomly around the edge. |
