    When I saw this I was so excited. The pictures I have seen so far seem to be quilt that have incorporated panels. I "volunteered" to finish a hand quilted "quilt" for my 85 yr old cousin Margie. BUT it is a humdinger to hand quilt. The front is what I would call a "cheater" and the backing is a sheet. Someone has started quilting around the stars. I was wondering if anyone knew where to buy such a thing???

    klgl- love that panel.
    AZ- that's a nice one, too.
    Irish- I've seen that fabric in my browsings and loved it, too. It would lend itself very well to applique, I think!
    Check out this one I just saw recently on the Pictures board (panel, not fabric, but close!)

    Same here. They go together quickly and, generally speaking, reflect what's 'in' these days.

    I just made this panel into a wall hanger too. I put all kinds of buttons and flair on it

    Has anyone seen Jenny Doan's tutorial on using panels and Missouri Star? She has some really cute ideas.

    That's a pretty panel but not a Dear Jane.
