I agree with doing a Snowball Block. It can be done with a coordinating 9 patch or a quarter piece triangles as shown in the picture. You can size the blocks any size but I make it with 8" finished blocks. I prefer the bigger blocks for doing charity quilts. BIGGER is BETTER, at least when you are disable.

Thanks for the ideas! I will really have somethings to think about this weekend now! I love the attic window quilt - thanks for sharing!
Thank you the snowball image as well... my mind is really starting to spin now

Warm Wishes is a cute and fairly fast quilt to make. You can get a free pattern on line, just type in Warm Wishes and there are several size patterns available. It does go together quickly and makes a pretty quilt.

I'm a huge fan of the Oriental Garden quilt. It works up super fast and you'll be able to use those prints perfectly. I've made several and some of the ladies in my guild have also used it. It works up lightening fast.. has no points to really match up. It's sweet

I actually made a Double Irish chain with these exact prints. I used the blue and red in the chain, with a really light cream as the background and then used the print with cowgirls as a nice wide border...would show a pic but I don't have the quilt here right now.
