I would use something like this for a panel quilt, with borders, maybe using 1930's fabric. It's gorgeous! As someone said, 'don't rush', it will come to you! (I would hate to cut it up, too!)
|
Not knowing the width or length, my suggestion would be to make it 3 or 4 large blocks and add all those delightful, solid colors in the fabric. Maybe adding some type of trim to bring out the blocks. I'm not an expert, but I really love your fabric. You could photocopy the fabric and lay out a design. Just thinking outloud. I really want to see what comes of this one.

So many ideas. Like to see what you decide. Then again, keeping it because it is vintage is another thought
|
Wait don't cut it. Not long ago there was a message of someone who had found a woman on ebay selling vintage fabrics at outragous prices- contact her and tell her you'll make her a really reasonable deal on buying this

I would make a picture log cabin quilt with it. cut one of the pictures and and add a two half in stips . use eight different colors that are in the picture or how ever big you make the pic. decied then how big your strips need to big. I make a lot of them that way and they always come neat.

Love your fabric. I too would wait and think about it for awhile. Before you know it, something will come to you.
|
I don't know what you should
do with it, but I love it!! I'll be waiting to see what you decide. I'm sure you'll get a lot of good ideas on here. Hugs, Sharon |
I would put it into a hoop and hang it on the wall as ART! Love it.
|
I love that fabric! Could you do a wall hanging with it? A quilt for a little girl? It is adorable.
