    While visiting son during his moving trip, we stopped at a JoAnns in the SF Bay area so he could pic out his quilt fabric. He has requested a warm quilt for his CA king size bed in No Cal by Christmas! Well, I found the paisley he chose at my local Joanns today, and got 2 other coordinating fabrics to go with.

    I am now looking for a nice CA KING size pattern -- any suggestions??
    I could do a D9P with very large blocks, but not sure that is what I want to do. Thanks!

    Fabrics are very pretty and should make a beautiful quilt, whatever pattern you use.

    Beautiful fabrics. I think something in large blocks might be nice.
