I did this once. Sort of. I didn't actually make a 'real' quilt. It was before my quilting days, back whien I only made squishie loves (stuffed critters) & garments.

I love to paint, and it was simple to draw any design I wanted on the finished size bit of muslin & scraps I had. (2 pieces of fabric-one for the front, one for the back- stitched right sides together then turned inside out for finished edges all around).

Using fabric paint made it possible to do almost any design I wanted in any color. Plain muslin could even become a 'print' without too much trouble. I stitched fake quilting lines on it to help with the illusion. It was actually a lot of fun. I did traditional geometric shaped quilts and an 'applique' quilt.
