    I could have fallen for that, too. Just a wee bit busy for me though, so I'd also have a hard time deciding what would suit it best. Funny, I have a lot of fabric in my stash that fits that description - too beautiful to be made into anything . . .
    Be warned. I am BORED.
    This could be dangerous.

    When you get cold just go stand in the corner.
    They are usually 90 degrees.

    A giraffe's coffee would be cold by the time it reached the bottom of his throat.
    Ever think about that? No? You only think about yourself??

    Throw pillows? Simple wall hanging? It is beautiful for sure.

    Wow! I love it, too. You'll have fun deciding what to do with it.

    Pretty fabric.......what about a pattern with big blocks for large prints.

    I think Keepsake Quilting's most recent catalog has one in the very back that would work. Either single Irish Chain, or a 9-patch with large blocks between.
    Using the birds in place of the solids and the jelly roll for the 9-patch blocks. It would be lovely and still keep the large print mostly intact. In the pattern the blocks are set on-point to give it a square look, but you could shift it to straight rows for a diagonal option, and eliminate the setting triangles.
