    Bento box? It can look great with two fabrics or many.

    This would be super cute if the block had a circle in the middle and each 1/2 of the circle is the opposite fabric. Hope that makes sense!

    I think it would be fine just alternating the large blocks with circles and boredering it with the solid pink.

    If you were wanting to add 1 other blending color for the backgrounds, a Dresden plate would be great to me.

    Something with curves would suit the circular polka dots very well. This is an older book, but very good with great technique and fun patterns. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cutting-Curv...-/345030967160

    I like the square within a square quilt pattern.

    Make a picnic quilt with one color on each side and tie it.

    This won't help with an idea for your quilt, but my mom made me a "bloomer dress" out of fabrics just like this when I was about 10 YO. The top was made out of white with tangerine dots and the shorts were made out of tangerine with white dots. That was my favorite outfit at the time. It eventually faded so much I was embarrassed to wear it any more. Can't wait to see your quilt, I'm sure it will be beautiful and happy.
