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.
I think the rail fence for a new quilter is very do-able! try a www.quilterscache.com for the pattern.... if it isn't .com then it's probably .net.

good luck!
