What about the Turning Twenty books or maybe one of the Maple Island BQ patterns?

Thanks.

Hi. I have seen some beautiful quilts on this site and thought this might help:

Also I have seen a quarter square block quilt with Kaffe fabrics that is luscious. I hope this helps

Wicked Easy is a great fat quarter quilt pattern. Have made several and have never been disappointed.

Oooooh, I would love to get my hands on those Living Large books - I saw a Pinterest pin of the "Spanish Tiles" quilt from one of the books (2nd?) and knew that is what I would do with the large scale floral I just bought! Truly beautiful...the sashing will be the harder part...

I saw a quilt I really liked at the fat quarter shop http://www.fatquartershop.com/modern...y-jocelyn-ueng ... I didn't buy the kit bc I had 12 fat quarters i wanted to use for the quilt...Instead I bought just the magazine so I could get the pattern only (I think it was $3.99 plus $2 shipping). It is a nice modern look that can showcase larger prints.
