    I'd take Erstan947's advice ... sounds like a solid plan .... Please keep us posted and show what you decide....lovely fabrics .... they need a permanent home ....

    Have you tried the Patches and pinwheels from the quiltville site. It looks like you have lots of variety to choose from for your lights and darks. I'm doing one now with my scraps and I had to buy some lights because I didn't have many. Check it out. she has a lot scrappy type quilts on that site to choose from, one may catch your eye. quiltville.com

    Log cabins and string quilts work well scrappy, also consider a knot garden quilt if you have enough yardage and contrast.

    Why not use 6 in squares of the florals and surround with green so it is like garden plots.
