Oh Mary, I think we have the same taste in fabric! Your fabric is just gorgeous! What about adding some white tone on tone, solid black and some pinks and you can make any pattern you like! You certainly have great taste in fabric!

Brown and Pink is very nice in the 19th century patterns. Churn dash and the older blocks. That is my very humble opinion. I think whatever you choose it will wonderful.

That fabric is to die for! I think something like this http://www.allwashedupquilts.com/just_c ... cut_it.htm would be darling!
You also have almost enough you could do a turning twenty quilt with just a few more yards of a tone on tone or something.

Just my 2 cents :O)

OK, so I'm VERY jealous! THOSE are MY colors, LOLOLOL. Forget making a quilt for your DD, send those to MEEEEEEE ;O) Ahhhhh, just kidding- I would go shabby chic but that's me. On the other hand, I love them so much that I wouldn't cut them at all. I'd send them to Amie and pick something else-----ROFLMBO!!Amie :oD

I agree with the idea to supplement with some other fabrics even if it takes a while to find what you need. This fabric is too gorgeous to just settle on a pattern. Add more fabrics and feature these fabrics to make a spectacular quilt. Just my 2 cents...

These fabrics are so gorgeous together. I don't think I'd add any more colors - just make a 2-color quilt. They are stunning. Just get more brown and pink fabric.

Mary your fabrics are gorgeous! Where did you buy such lovely fabrics?

Have you thought of the pink lemonade pattern with a couple of added fabrics? I find that this pattern goes together so easily and it makes a lovely quilt. You could use the small print for your centers the pink print with maybe a darker pink for the chevrons,a background fabric and your paisley for the outside border. Maybe a solid brown would be a nice addition.
