Rail fence with the print as the center strip--simple, but it would show off the fabrics well.

The Disappearing Hourglass pattern makes a nice stár block. You could use the white with small stars as the background and use the two other fabrics as the contrast colour. Several DHG quilts have been posted on QB.

Variable Star with the white as the center block, the blue as the star points.

I am currently working on a Hunter's Star with red, white, and blue. I think it looks great. You might want to try it, but you'd need a Rapid Fire Hunter's Star ruler. I think it's well worth the investment.

Here's a few of my quilts of valor.Both quilts are Villa Rosa Designs patterns. #1 is "Polka". It can be done with 3 fabrics, I needed to use up lots of scraps. #2 quilt is called, "Saratoga", I've done this quilt in red,white and blue also. Both quilts are very simple to piece.

You can find more patterns on the website. http://www.villarosadesigns.com/
