The title of this thread certainly caught my attention and I thought, this must be bad!! Like ifstamper, I think the colors of the log cabins just don't maybe go with the colors in the panel. However, if these are the fabrics she sent, I guess you could maybe add some others to the mix. If you google medallion quilts, you will find oodles of ideas as your panel is the medallion. You will get worlds of ideas to work with in addition to those already suggested. Sometimes just seeing all the possibilities will re-direct your juices and good luck!!
