Yeaaaaaa! I'm going to be looking forward to seeing what you decide to do.
I've been "petting" my Iris Garden Panel too .... plus it is proudly laid on some fabric over a platform rocker in my living room, so that I can oooh and aaaaah over it, everytime I go by! It will be accompanying me on a Shop Hop next weekend to start the quest for some yellow to match the background.
