Default Gorgeous fabric ... what to quilt?

I bought a yard of each of the fabrics below ... but am at a loss for a GREAT pattern (or at least an idea of a pattern ... I don't follow patterns!)

Any suggestions?

Sometimes you have to pet the fabric a awhile before it tells you what it wants. They are beautiful together and I'm sure what ever you decided will be perfect.

I'm seeing a lovely bargello!!! I would however move the fabric in the center (light purple with flowers) to the far left of the blues. And come to think of it, the blue 2nd from the left (with the yellow) move to the left of the other blue.

Those are so beautiful, I think I would have to study them for awhile before I could make up my mind on what pattern to choose.

Beautiful selection of colors. Best idea I have is just keep looking at them, checking different patterns and something will pop into your head. Can't wait to see what you decide upon.

I would make a Trip Around the World. A lap-size of Eleanor Burn's Quick Trip Around the World takes only 1/2 yd of 9 fabrics and you can use the rest for borders - and it's easy! My avatar is a crib-size QTATW. This is a YouTube video of how to make it: http://tinyurl.com/nvhshyh
