If you are new to quilting, I worry about doing such a large quilt. A standard queen size batting is 90" x 108". That means you need to add approximately 35" to each side of the panel and 43" to both the top and the bottom. If you add a 3" border to the panel, the remaining space can easily be filled with 8" finish blocks. Being a western theme, I would go with what is called the rail fence. I had a freebie pattern but I can't seem to find it. It was called Rodeo ?. Will PM you if I find it.
