    Oh, how about a French Braid in greens and tans? That would be stunning!

    I did this with all my blue scraps. I agree with finding a color to unify them together. In my case, I used the same yellow as the center of each block, with white all over sashing and a second yellow for the sashing squares.
    If you like, let me know and I will find the pattern for you.

    I think any of the suggestions would make a great green quilt.

    I'm thinking Ocean Waves would look great in green as well as blues...wonder if I can find a link.

    Several years ago I did a scrappy "Thousand Pyramids" using only greens and tans.

    I love greens. I made a pattern called Faceted Jewels with all greans just mixed up and a cream colored background color. It was Gorgeous. I dont remember who the author of the pattern was by but you could use a search on the internet and find it.

    You didn't say what your skill level is, but I am doing a very simple "string" quilt using all purples. It is coming together nicely - even better than I thought it would.
