Frozen book panel into a quilt
 
Has anyone used the panel to make a quilt. I have the panel and am trying to decide how to place the pages into a twin sized quilt for an 8 year old girl.

Please note I do not do FB or Pinterest so can not use either of those.

This is the panel I have, any info is greatly appreciated.

I made a Charlie Brown quilt out of a panel book once that turned out really cute. I cut the panels & then used Minky & flannel for the rest of the quilt. I used flannel on the back of the quilt. I hope this helps give you some ideas.
Here's the book panel I used:

I use those types of things for kids quilts a lot, I usually just cut them out, put fabric around the edges to make them all the same size, sew them together in book order and you have a top. Sometimes if I want it bigger I'll add sashing between the blocks. Usually just keep it simple.

I have used panels and adding borders to make a quick quilt. Easy and done.

Here is one of my favorite tutorials for making quilts from panels.

osewme, that is a great looking quilt and must see if I have some white snowflakes to use with the pale blue I already have. That sure would be a quick quilt. What size did your quilt finish, my blocks are rectangle so would be a bit longer and not as wide.

Ronda K that is a great video, she used a lot of prints to surround the blocks. I have a snowflake print very close to the same color as around my blocks. Had thought of keeping it all winter type when done. Have to think about using 'colors' to frame out each block and just what colors to use.

I only have 11 true blocks to work with but would like to use the large oval 'Frozen' as a block and not use the one about it being a book.

Now I have something to play with tomorrow and lay out the blocks.
Thank you for the help

farmquilter, I don't remember what size it finished at but it was a baby quilt & looks to be about 45" x 45". My design wall is 48" wide & it's a tad smaller than that & I think I made it square.

I know at least I am pretty sure that I posted the Frozen quilt I made for my grand daughter. You could just do a search here for Frozen quilts and they should come up. If it's not there I will repost it for you.

Well I did a search for my quilts but couldn't find it so I will try to upload it here.

Thank you so much for the photo. Now a question,would you tell me where you got the fabrics to use in the filler blocks, are they related to the panel print.
Any information is greatly appreciated so I can have it finished for December gifting.

Actually no they are not related, I had a jelly roll by Eleanor Burns called Zoey Christine and with the book panel plus blocks that I drew is the way it was completed. I don't know if that jelly roll is still available but I am sure you can find fabrics related to the Frozen range.
