Use as a wall hanging, enhance, enhance, enhance. Beads, floww, tiny buttons, etc.etc.

I'm thinking I'll probably cut the individual sections apart and piece them into a throw or bed quilt top this spring. I'd love to hear your suggestions!

Gorgeous panel. I would border it just as is.

My vote is for adding borders and using as a wall hanging.

It's beautiful. I'd cut it into blocks and put it with coordinating fabrics to make a quilt for the bed.

For a quick quilt just border it - The attic window pattern would really set it off I think. Not sure what the Japanese one works but from what I can tell that would be good too. Anyone with info on Japanese style please pm me thanks
