Looking for Pattern

I was rootling through my very messy stash (trying to straighten up the
sewing space) and found some fabric with Hawaiian shirts on it. Does someone
know of a pattern that would showcase this fabric?
TIA

Donna:
Is this an all over print with the shirts tossed across the fabric? Are the
shirts a medium size? Check the print to see what would be a good size
square. If you can get a nice cut at 6" to 9" square, look for some basic
patterns built around simple squares. I suggest Warm Wishes at
quiltmaker.com. It is a free pattern and lots of fun. We Divas have used it
several times for Quilts of Valor, but we changed the dimensions to suit our
needs. Go check the site, then if you like it, you may want to email me for
more info.

Kaleidoscopes?

Some truly ugly and garish fabrics are transformed by using
them in kaleidoscope designs. Doesn't have to involve
complex piecing. Four repeats of a section of the print set
as QSTs can make lovely tile patterns, and the squares are
easier to piece/join than triangles.

But then again - you didn't say if the fabric was ugly or
if you wanted to "feature" the shirts in the print

Thanks, Patti, that is a good idea. I hadn't thought of that.

Yes, it is an all over print. I have made a couple of quilts from that Warm
Wishes pattern--I love that pattern. And it just might work!!
