Tula Pink's version from the book.
Wow Jean!!!! That's beautiful!!
I don't usually like that much pink but that is amazing. I think you changed my mind about that color.

You could sew the blocks together, add a scalloped white border with a white back and use it for a summer lap quilt. Or get more and make a larger quilt for your bed.

You could put together hour glass blocks and a 4 square! The tut is here on MQC..I used a layer cake from Modas Marmalade flannel!

Mix it up with some matching solid colors & make either a Disappearing 9-Patch, or the Double Slice Layer Cake. JCY

Reading the responses.. I had a thought.. choose one or two of the colors you like the best and get solids of those 2 colors then you can make HST's or hourglass with them. Or log cabin or pinwheel or 9 patch. THose two extra colors aleviate the "stress" of not having enough of the prints... it kind of expands the options for patterns.

I really like Jenny's large star quilt using layer cakes. It looks easy and fast and beautiful

A Chevron would look nice also.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUNGH9B0Ohw I didn't see that one mentioned yet. So many fantastic ideas to choose from.
