Connecting Threads is another source. One of my favorite quilts is a sampler quilt from a panel that I cut apart and hand quilted around each design. When the quilting was finished it looked like it was appliqued. I receive so many compliments on it and the only ones who know I did not actually hand applique each piece is the friends who bought the same panel. BTW I am the only one who did anything with mine and there were at least five others who purchased the panel, this was about 20+ years ago. I have even received compliments from other quilters. There are some beautiful panels that you can do so much with. No I don't feel it is cheating, I am still putting it together and quilting it. Just a different way.
