    Two colour quilts are so elegant and classic.

    Quiltmaker Magazine had a pattern called Whirligiggle that would work if you have good contrast for your blues – scroll down to the extras from the May/June 2010 issue:

    Cottage Garden Quilts shows Shoo Fly blocks on-point that would look great with your blues (as would many other blocks set on-point) – scroll down at this site:

    Robert Kaufman Fabrics offers a free pattern from Darlene Zimmerman called Happy Days that has alternating pinwheel and patterned blocks:

    Hugs and Kisses are great 2-color patterns but they work best with higher contrast. You didn't say how contrasty your blues are. Also - just blue would make the quilt rather dark.
