    I vote for Warm Wishes pattern. Keep the tan and use one of the greens for the inside border and use the bunnies again for an outside border.

    I like the warm wishes pattern but for something different how about an Irish Chain.

    I think a snow ball pattern would be nice, sure would show off hose bunnies.

    Wow, love your fabric, Could you also cut some of them off and applique on some blocks in the corners, that way looks like they are all over the quilt. Have fun!

    Please don't do a One Block Wonder or anything where you cut it into tiny pieces. It freaks me out when animal fabrics get cut off and you have headless bunnies and various other misplaced appendages :shock: :shock: :shock:

    Maybe something where you alternate - big bunny block, star block (or something with piecing). So that way you keep the bunnies while doing something more complicated than just big squares.

    I thought I was the only one who felt that way. I am making a ballerina quilt and just couldn't cut the ballerinas so I used the fabric as 2 panels with pieced blocks around them and in the middle. So far it looks beatiful. I also have a fabric with Saint Francis that I couldn't cut do to the same issue so I am now going to make a quilt with the same pattern exactly like the ballerina.
