Too Much Work. Just use as quilt top as is and quilt along each line. Dimension, Dimenson, Dimension.

You can then make them all face the same direction. Was that one as clear as mud?

think I also would use for the quilt back as one whole piece, and use something different for the quilt top that co-ordinates with this fabric

I think it depends if you are just wanting to make a quick quilt, & leave it as it is, or fussy cut & jazz it up a bit! Either would work out nicely, just a matter of personal choice. Me, I like to play, so I would cut them up & have fun creating something! Show us what you end up doing later, okay, & have fun, whichever way you choose!

You could make a quilt of neutral background blocks larger than the squares in your fabric, fussy cut the blocks of animals and then applique them at tilted angles on the front of the blocks.

Leave it together with borders. It does not matter that they are not all going the same way. It will be unique

Wow, such great ideas. My head is spinning. I would like to keep a large panel for the front and then put borders around that. I think I will use the leftovers and applique some of the animals and birds on them. You all have such great ideas. Much more than I could think of. Thank you so much.

I think it is beautiful fabric just as it is. I would probably use it for the quilt's back, so I didn't have to cut it up, and do patchwork on the front, maybe using just a few of the squares from the back.

Here is a quilt where I used whole cloth and then then did patch work top and bottom, added a border with fussy cut corner blocks. This is made of flannel and given to my grandson when he turned 16. this is not my pattern and I cannot tell you who's it is off the top of my head. If anyone wants the name I will search my pattern box for it.

I would leave it intact - way too pretty to cut up!!
