We were invited to my BIL for Friday and their granddaughter will be there. She's 8 and I wanted to take her a little something. I have this fabric in my stash (about 1 1/2 yds.) and thought it would make a cute lap quilt for her. Any suggestions???

You could do a real quick strip quilt with that fabric as the focus, or just border it with accent colors.

Leave it as is and add a pretty border to it.

A pillow case would also be nice.

I would border it. Beautiful fabric.

I recognize that fabric. I was thinking about cutting large squares from the dancers and using simple borders to frame them.

Multiple colored frames would be cute and quick too :D:D:D
