    Here is a great pattern for those fabrics. Go to http://www.anniescatalog.com/detail....97&cat_id=1430
    I think it would be great.

    I had a collection of fabric and found "baguettes and brioche" from Modern Quilt Relish.

    Definitely a log cabin, but you'll need a couple more darker prints. It's a great block to use those fabrics with. Be sure to leave a diagram of the block in front of you as you make it, though - its easy to pick up the wrong fabric and have a dark where a light should be (or vice versa)...

    I'm working on a large king size version now -- my strips are 2.5 inches, which makes my blocks 18" finished. It's autumn colors mainly on the darker side and white/offwhite/beige on the lighter size. Wanted a larger block as it will be 120 x 120 when completed.

    How about a scrappy Triple Irish Chain, I think that would be very pretty.

    There are only about a million (LOL) layout ideas for a Log Cabin. Google Log Cabin but get a cuppa your favorite beverage first. Then drool. (Have napkin ready to mop it up). Google Trip Around the World too. Yardage isn't important for either pattern because you have enough fabrics for a "scrappy" look. I love the paisley on the right.

    I have a lot of those fabrics -- they are perfect for any Kim Diehl design!

    I am a bit of a traditionalist - what about a log cabin? You certainly have enough variety - with adding only one other color for the center square........There are so many options........your fabrics are beautiful!!
