    I recently purchased 2 yards of a beauitful Batik. It has squares with flower shapes approximently 6" square. Maybe 8 different "flowers". What would be a good pattern? I want to make a throw about 55 X 65". I thought maybe some kind of framed block to highlight the print? I always get good advice here. Thanks

    I like BQ, BQ 2 and BQ 3 patterns at the link below. There is another one- Sidelines - that also uses large squares. I've made BQ and it's very easy.

    Is it the second one posted here? I have some of that and am trying to think of a pattern for it too. I'm thinking I might fussy cut the squares and do something with them.
