A Ricky Tims Convergence with the strips cut diagonally so you don't lose the vertical and horizontal basketweave effect of the print might be fun.
Wonderful fabric. Rob <object type="cosymantecnisbfw" cotype="cs" id="SILOBFWOBJECTID" style="width: 0px; height: 0px; display: block;"></object> |
Here is a quilt from Debbie in Alaska that I really like. It is a free pattern from her. It's basically a D4P and I was thinking that if you made the print blocks big enough, it would make an interesting quilt and maybe show off the fabrics also.

Oh, I love that fabric. I would have walked out of the show with the same fabric also. That is one of those fabrics i would have to pet and star at a while to decide what to so with it. Sometimes I let fabrics like that hang on my sign wall for a while hoping for some inspiration. That would make a nice convergence quilt.

Have to say that I prefer using fantastic fabrics like this one for the back... I know you want to showcase it but I believe the back should always be as beautiful as the front...

Check out The Wave pattern at Butterfly Stitches. The pattern can be just a 2 color quilt & I think it might work really well
|
It's gorgeous! I couldn't cut it!
|
Its beautiful but no ideas sorry :)
|
I would make a project that would minimize cutting it up. Could be a tablecloth, tote bag or pillow case.
|
Can see why you couldn't walk past this fabric....gorgeous!
Try a google search on ombre quilt patterns... Wowser! browsing the quilts. A lot of eye candy and patterns that may work for this fabric. |
I also bought that very same fabric & I used it to make a sewing purse I quilted it then made it with some vinyl pockets then two cloth pockets with zippers. I'll be taking it to my Tuesday quilt group with my supplies in it. The other ladies really liked it.
