    The1600 top is quick and easy and makes a throw size top. I recently saw some embellished with raw edge flowers scattered over the top or one big bloom on a stem with a couple of leaves. Just Google 1600 in. Quilt to see the process.

    I really like the jelly roll (1600) quilt. There is one posted on here using the same colors and she called it the LASAGNA QUILT. It is beautiful...that may be what I do. Just have to make a decision and go with it!

    Thank you all for so many good ideas! I knew I could count on this board!

    How about a chevron pattern with white or black as the contrasting fabric? Such pretty colors!

    I second the idea of the Missouri Star Quilting Jelly Roll Race quilt, except recently a friend of mine has made several and at the end of every strip she put a 2 1/2" black square. When you sew it all up it is awesome!!! She used solid black on the ones she did, because it worked, but you can use whatever color you want. Looks fantastic!!!!

    I like this idea! I also love Bargellos...however, I have two patterns I purchased and had to hide in a drawer because they were staring and daring me! My skill level is not up to trying one yet!
