Oh I'm sorry :( I know that had to hurt - but.. I know kids are funny about their characters. I think you did the best using a panel! I tried to applique Barney years ago and the color was all wrong plus it didn't look exactly like Barney. I love your idea of putting the world on the back. He will love it and that is ALL that matters!
big hugs and you will know you did the right thing when he see's his quilt for the first time :)

I worked harder keeping the panel from getting wonky than I did on his other "real" quilts! Kinda hoping he likes it just cause his tomater is on it. do any of you feel it is crappy to use a panel? I used the world on the back so when he is older, or now, he can look at the map and know his dad Army-deployed, is There.
