    Trip around the World or Bargello is what I thought of immediately.

    Bargello are not difficult if you can cut straight and sew straight ... and be organized.

    But if you narrow it down to the three you posted, I like the trip around the world.

    I would go with a quilt from Missouri Star. I believe it is called "shadows." Would look nice in the batiks.

    What about adding white a background and doing something like Kim Einmo(think I'm spelling that wrong).
