I love Spanish Tiles! I have the pattern, fabrics for it - just need the time
Here's a link to a quilt that showcases large cuts - I've made this, it's quick, easy, impressive.

This is what came to mind for me, too. I'm partial to Snowball blocks alternated with nine patches. You can make the center of the snowball block as large as needed for the focus fabric.

I have a beautiful length of fabric that has bouquets of hydrangeas. The bouquet design measures 8.5 inches square. I don't want to just cut blocks and sash them together, I would like the design to be complemented in a patchwork block. If anyone has a pattern for a block or whole quilt using a big block I would like to see it. I am happy to purchase a pattern if anyone can direct me to one.
