Just look for medium to large prints...the small dense prints don't work out well.
I started with Asian prints...the colors are so rich. I have used some of the large focal fabrics with success also.

Google "quilt mirrors" for picture....sorry it didn't come through.
It's used a lot for block designs by some.
