How beautiful! That pattern could be used to spotlight any fabric! Be sure to post a pic after it's quilted, please!

Very pretty! Great use of the fabrics, and the black sets them off well. :)

I used black trying to make the colors show up. It's really simple but I like it.

Thanks for looking
Sorry the pictures arent so great, it is HUGE so it's hard to get a picture

PLEASE UNDERSTAND THIS HAS NOT BEEN IRONED LOL

That's a great idea. I had a quilting friend who went to Hawaii and brought me back some precut small squares of fabric. I might do this with mine also.

What a great idea! I have a box full of home dec fabric taken from a book of sample fabrics of the same line. I have already cut into 6" squares. I could either use the squares as is, or I could cut the squares in half to have the rectangles. Will have to pull them out to see what sashing would be best to highlight the colors in the fabrics. I hope you don't mind us piggy-backing off of your idea. And thanks for the link. Although white is not my idea to use in my home (wink -- too many little ones and teens loving up my quilts), it is a gorgeous quilt.
