Are these panels part of a pattern?

Thanks everyone! It's a fairly old print but really is lovely quality fabric. Will add borders and have enough for 3 comfort quilts. Will post pic when done.

Some cheater panels (like this one) quilt up beautifully. I did one that reminds me of a Baltimore Album quilt and I hand quilted around all the designs and no one including quilting friends knows I did not hand applique it. Yes, there are some panels that look like panels but I have seen some of them where the quilter cuts around the design and appliques it. Please post pictures when you finish it.

It is a cheater panel but I think would look nice cut up with an alternative design framing or adding color.

My friend taught me these were convenience quilts...sounds nicer than cheater. It is so pretty that I would just quilt it.

Thanks to anyone who can shed some light on this.
