Very cute panel, if you can't find anything to do with it you can mail it to me...wink wink. If you have a sewing room with free wall space it would be nice as a few wall hangings, OR a quilt for yourself, OR you an make market bags, OR table topper with place mats So many ideas, post a pic of finished project. I would love to see what you create

AnnieH 03-19-2011 10:42 PM

I'd buy it too and then not know what to do with it! Show us please when you're done.

craftybear 03-19-2011 10:45 PM

great finds,

the panel would be cute to make a wallhanging for your sewing room or a sewing machine cover

can't wait to see what you create

jemma 03-20-2011 01:26 AM

QuiltnNan 03-20-2011 03:57 AM

Sew cute. Bags or totes.

lovingmama 03-20-2011 05:48 AM

Wonderful panel, I would do a sewing machine cover with it.

Ditto Inquiring minds want to know. :thumbup:

Nice finds. The sewing panel is so cute!

The first thing I thought of when I saw it was a sewing machine cover.

The second thing was a traveling tote to take your sewing goodies with you.

Please show us what you decide to do with it.

cny_sewer39 03-20-2011 08:22 AM

I bought the panel at the Temple Sew & Quilt Store in Temple, TX. I paid $6.48 + tax. Thanks for all of the great ideas.

I have a great idea for the panel, send it to me! lol
Nice items, the panel is very pretty, lucky you!

CarrieAnne 03-20-2011 08:35 AM

Great panel, I love it!

darlin121 03-20-2011 09:04 AM

Thanks for the ordering information. The panel is just too cute to resist!

FranW 03-20-2011 12:17 PM

I found the panel at Miller's Dry Goods in Charm, OH (www.millersdrygoods.com) and it was $3.95 plus tax.
We also stopped at a quilt store in Kidron, OH and they also had the panel (but I think it was $6.95 plus tax). But, if you are anywhere near Kidron, OH, they are having a huge "flood sale". I bought 8 yards of fabric for $4.00/yard and there wasn't a mark on any of it. I immediately washed it to be sure but it was all top quality fabric. Great deal.

quilter2theend 03-21-2011 06:27 AM

Yep! wall hanging or sewing machine cover for your sewing room, absolutely adorable! Let us know what you make.

hopingtobegood 03-21-2011 06:38 AM

Your panel is great! I also live in the Temple area, Salado, and read the message board daily, totally addicted to it...a neighbor and I get together at least weekly and quilt in my detached cottage on our property....maybe we should meet and quilt together, sometime...??

Would love to know you and compare "notes", I am a real newbie, only been quilting about 3 mo....

Thanks for your post,

Molly Kirk

aren't days like that fun????!!!! Problem is - I also spend more than intended if I go with someone....better to go alone pocketbook-wise for me!

katlady 03-21-2011 07:18 AM

Make a wall hanging out of the panel.

sweetsie 03-21-2011 08:36 AM

Love the panel, am anious to see what you make!!!!!!!!!!
Have to get one now, it's so cute.

virg 03-21-2011 08:41 AM

Great finds.

mzzzquilts 03-21-2011 08:59 AM

The first big picture with the mouse on the sewing machine would make an adorable sewing machine cover! Love it all.

redturtle 03-21-2011 09:16 AM

hmm...guess i will have to also do a day trip by myself...guess it just means more room to pack the car w/ what i buy...haha!!

went to Kentucky w/ a childhood friend to visit another childhood friend...we managed to make it to only one fabric store...bummer for me...but the trip was great!

hmmm....which direction shall i head? what will i find?...
glad you enjoyed yourself...and i wouldnt know what to do w/ the panels you found either but they would be purchased and packed into my car too...they are so cute!!!

matraina 03-21-2011 09:26 AM

How about a couple pillows and a lap quilt (with a couple borders added).

dorrell ann 03-21-2011 01:21 PM

Great finds -Oh to be away by ones self!!!!!!

Dollysquiltingmom 03-21-2011 01:23 PM

Panels are sew cute!!!

Margie 03-21-2011 02:01 PM

GOOD SHOPPING.

sammy89 03-21-2011 03:49 PM

should haved called me I just live in Killeen always like shopping

madamekelly 03-21-2011 04:47 PM

Use the panel to make a wall hanging quilt, but put flannel on the back, and the hanging sleeve at the top. Hang it in your sewing room, and reverse it for a design wall when you need one? (Just a thought...) I like things that do more than one thing.

p38flygirl 03-21-2011 05:13 PM

great finds..

OHSue 03-21-2011 05:17 PM

Good finds, you will love that paper piecing book, it is the one I first learned from. The panels are adorable.

Nettie Phillips 03-21-2011 05:51 PM

Not sure what to do with the panel but it sure is pretty. You will
have to send a picture when you do figure out what to do with
it.

roseOfsharon 03-21-2011 05:59 PM

I just adore the panels you have found.
