    Being a beginner, I am learning.....I have several pieces of different color Toile design fabrics. Does anyone have ideas on how to incorporate them into a quilt pattern or if to use them at all??

    there are plenty of stunning toile quilts out there! i have seen them with a large section of the fabric in the center surrounded by flying geese blocks, star blocks, and 9 patch blocks. i have seen the toile cut into squares and framed with stars, blocks, geese...
    if you type toile quilts into your search engine you will be directed to lots of sites showing different toile fabrics and lots of inspiration.
