    These are beautiful. I don't have a specific pattern to suggest, but I would add black to it to make the colors pop.
    Looking forward to seeing the finished quilt.

    Give it time. I finally made a quilt this past summer out of fabric I bought several years ago because i could not find the right pattern.

    Those are beautiful fabrics and when I first saw them I thought of a bargello pattern and it looks like a few of us quilters thought the same thing after reading the replies. Good Luck.

    My first thought was Edyta Sitar Rainbow star. It's not a quick pattern but would be beautiful with your fabric.

    Bargello was my first thought too! A basic bargello is really NOT hard, to me French Braid is a harder pattern than Bargello is.

    I like all of your choices though. Those fabrics are great, you'll have a lovely quilt no matter what pattern you use.
