    It could just be the picture or lighting, but while the solid brown looks like a great match, the blue looks a little too clear. Try one that's a little more muted. Doesn't have to be a perfect match, but I suspect this one would stick out in that beautiful muted palette. And definitely add a cream!!!

    I think a Rail Fence would highlight your lovely colors. You could us an off white with three colors and come up with 2 quilts. Marvel

    Disappearing Nine Patch with the turquoise as the center square would look awesome. No need to add additional colors...just your prints and the turquoise, starting with 5" squares, using the basket weave material on the sides and the other 2 prints alternating on the corners!! YUM!

    WOW-great fabrics! Yes, an off white to match may look good in it also. Anything will look stunning with those colors coordinating so well.

    I bought that fabric also. Got mine at Wal-Mart. I used it to make a tote bag for my son's girlfriend for Xmas. She just loved it! I used the middle one and the one on the right. Here's a pic:
