Everyone is so helpful in this forum. I am taking many of your suggestions and saving them for some of the other projects I purchased in Paducah. I think I will do the random disappearing 9 patch for these beautiful fabrics.

No advise as to what pattern to make but you when you decide, you will have beautiful fabric to work
with.

My 2 favorite patterns for fabric bundles are Yellow brick road and Fat Quarter Shuffle. Both are fast and easy and show off the beauty of the fabrics. You chose well. They are beautiful.

One of my favorite "go-to's" is TURNING TWENTY. Yes, you would add some fat quarters to your bundle to make a nice-sized quilt, or you could make a smaller lap quilt by using fewer blocks. There are some larger pieces in the quilt, so your really nice fabrics will definitely have a chance to shine a little.

Bq2 is so one I'd thought would work but the hen that doesn't used that many diff fabrics. DP9 is actually a good
Suggestion.

I love Boxed Squares. It is easy but can be very impressive when a lot of colors are used.

I would love seeing those fabrics in a Dresden plate.
