That would be the center of my quilt. I would add maybe some log cabin blocks at the corners and make a rectangle/square, and border it with animal prints fabrics, maybe in some type of zig zag pattern. Then I'd FMQ basenjis all over it! I would use some copper metallic thread for some of it
I'd make it really busy, as that's how basenjis are
Now, what do I suggest you do? Let your imagination go, and let your creative side have fun!
The second one? My brain's too tired after all that creative thinking - I have nothing
I don't completely understand this; I haven't studied it enough, but this would use the fabric as intended. Also Jackie (post #10) sort of said the same thing.
The second piece would be a second quilt - table topper - wall hanging - ???. They will be lovely however you use them. Can't wait to see a picture of the finished product - products.
