    Something with pinwheels would look nice.

    I would look for something that uses larger blocks to show off some of that beautiful fabric.

    HOW ABOUT A DRESDEN PLATE BLOCK? iT? It would show off all your beautiful fabrics. Used as a table runner or whole table cloth.

    If you don't want to cut them up too much, how about a Turning Twenty or Yellow Brick Road? Those are very pretty fabrics. Can't wait to see what you make with them.

    You could do a magic nine patch. It is simple but turns out very nice. You make 31/2 inch strips and number from 1-6 then you make strip sets 1-2-3, 2-3-4, 3-4-5, 4-5-6, 5-6-1, & 6-1-2. Cut into 3 1/2 inch segments. Make blocks by sewing Block A (1,2,3 - 2,3,4,- 3, 4, 5) & Block B (4, 5, 6 - 5,6,1 - 6-1-2). Now alternate Blocks A & B. Makes diagonal lines of each fabric. Hope this is not too confusing.

    There is a pattern called Five X Five. It has 5 different quilts you can make from five one yard cuts of coordinating fabrics You might use your sixth fabric for an extra border. The pattern is from CrazyEights. Telephone is (219) 929-4511. These quilts are easy and fast to make. Hope this helps.
