Pattern needed
 
2 Attachment(s)
Hi everyone. I came across a quilting shop while on a weekend away, just had to browse and I found the attached fabric. Think it is incredible and want to make a new quilt for my bed, just don't know what pattern and what alternative fabrics I should put with this. Having a real mind blank on this one. Any advise welcome and appreciated. Thanks. Diane

Oh my that is sooo gorgeous, I would just want it to be a wholecloth spread for my bed...

how large is the design? can you put a ruler or coin on it to show the design size?

What a stunning fabric. Maybe a one block wonder (OBW) -- although it will have some very dark blocks. But if you have enough fabric, you could leave some of the dark blocks out and use that fabric for another project.

Can you please tell us who the manufacturer is? and the designer and/or collection name?

I would put turquoise and slate grey with it. As for pattern, I would do one of the big block patterns so you don't have to cut up the fabric too much.

I agree with Tartan on the colors. Just beautiful fabric.

that is incredibly gorgeous!! i would be fussy cutting the larger motif to use as setting blocks in among simple blocks made from complememtary colors. i would not want to indescriminately chop up this beautiful design!

Same here. Love the fabric! I would look for other fabrics in that line made to coordinate with it.

it's beautiful, dark grey, light grey black aqua and different shades of grey would all go nicly with it, even a pop of red. please show us what you do.
