Warm Wishes always makes a stunning quilt! Good decision.

You can even do it in just 3 fabrics, instead of the four the pattern calls for. I have done two that way. Let me see if I can find pictures...

then again, when you get to the LQS, there is usually a wall or kiosk of patterns there, maybe one there will hit you.

If you have large prints that you do not want to cut up...try the BQ pattern by Maple Island...really fast and uses 3 fabrics. Tried to add photo but it didn't work...not sure how to do it here b/c I have never posted one. Good Luck!

You could use Jacob's Ladder, or Contrary Wife (this describes me a lot of the time - LOL), as I have made many, many quilts, placemats, table runners, and even a queen size quilt or two with both of these quilts. You could use the eggplant for the squares, apple green for the HST and cream for the background. The colors sound beautiful.
