    Disappearing 9 patch is great for 3 fabrics. As is Churn Dash.
    both work up quickly.

    I do a Wonky star block with three prints, one for the center, one for the points & one for the background... just serch wonky star, here on the board & it comes up with lots of posts. Its a really easy pattern but turns out great! PM me if you have trouble finding them.

    I got three beautiful prints from Beverly's the other day and was just thinking I should ask for ideas of what to do with them. I love them and want to make a quilt but not sure what to try. Now I have ideas to look at. Thanks everyone.
