The fabric is called "Happy Camper" and there are many coordinating prints for it.

I would fussy cut the campers into squares and put them into an attic windows setting ... sort of a "windows on travel" theme.

I'd really like to see a photo of what you come up with. My parents also had campers and trailers and loved to travel acros the USA.

I would suggest the book "9-Patch Pizzazz: Fast, Fun & Finished in a Day" Judy Sisneros. It's for big prints you just can't cut up.

I would do as others suggested and fussy cut the campers and make them the center of the block. I'll attach a picture of a block in a quilt I made for DD. I fussy cut the bunnies to make them the star of the quilt.

Very cute fabric by the way!
