Those panels are just fabulous. I would make a wall hanging in the red, white and black color theme. What a wonderful find.

Boy, if I could be so lucky!! The panels would look great as the center of a quilt, surrounded by lots of color.

What a great find! I would pick one bright color like red or turqoise and frame the black and white pictures with the bright color of your choice. And then I would put a large border of the same bright color all around before quilting and binding.

I framed my squares so it would be sashing. You can see the quilt in my webshots album.

I made a quilt with these. I used alternating blocks of muslin and finished it with a huge 3" ruffle and backed it with muslin. I came out beautiful and soft.
I quilted all of the rooms and background lines. It was fun to do.
