Each one of the dragons are 21" X 11" so I thought one in the center would look nice.

I think your idea is great and would go far it. That is great fabric.
Please post pictures when finished. Glenn :D

It sounds great. I love that dragon fabric. It's awesome. I can't wait to see your quilt.

Love that dragon fabric!! I like the idea of fussy cutting the dragon, though I think it's a shame to cut right into that pretty fabric. :) :) Good luck!! Can't wait to see how it comes out!

i would also plaster the dragon to either the black or the red. it will stand out more. all that fussy cutting and applique work will deserve all the attention it can get. :-)

I agree. Here is what I have at this point. I have put the center one on some differant colors, (any likes or dislikes) I am looking for some Lantern block patterns for the four cornors. Any help?

Here are two that may work for you,

I like the black personally,

I like the dark much better than the white but I think it is still a little too busy. A black on black would really pop the dragon more.

Have you considered getting a full width fabric and doing ALL applique? That would be smashing. Then you could do all those flames that were talked about in cute's PDA.

I agree with MadQuilter, the black is better but too busy.

I bought some of that same fabric and amde pillowcases for my DDs BFF and then a couple for her. Her BFF loves the ho,memade pillowcases as presents plus her mom thinks I'm sew talented. NOT!! but can make pillowcases.
