Thread: Has anyone made a quilt from a soft book?

I need some ideas. I bought Vegie tales soft book and I want to make a quilt out of it. Does anyone have any ideas. I bought it at fabric.com.

My friend is just doing that with the "Night Before Xmas". She cut it apart and bordered each section sort of like a "log cabin" affect, but only one border. Then she plans to sash when they are all done. She alternated green and red borders around the blocks. Looking very cute (used Patrick Lose marble material and it is very bright, colorful, christmasy. It is going to be gorgeous.

Here is a camping one I did with a soft book panel.

Thanks Murphy, I guess I'm going to have to draw it out so I get a visual.

Thanks Donna, I printed it off. Looks like it will work for me too. By the way great job.

I know lots of ppl that have done them, I haven't but good luck with it-they turn out really cool!

I made a baby quilt out of a soft book. It works really well. The possibilities are endless.

That is so cute--Great idea Thanks

Here is a quilt I did from a panel...I am sure you could take any panel pieces and work it into a quilt really easily.

Off hand, I don't remember if the panel blocks were 9.5 or 12.5, but there is 1.5 inch sashing (green).
