Their website is www.quilthaus.com. The owner, Deanne, is the one that designed this pattern.

i love this quilt.. great way to use a panel or something you don't want to cut too much.. i just ordered this pattern thanks to you.. wish you could get some store credit for that !...

Why don't you leave it the way it is and put rails up and down say 10 inches apart. Make it look like a window.

I'd put it on a really large wooden frame, like you do canvas, and then make lots of pillows for the couch or floor, mixing them with solid colors taken from the fabric.

I would do one that has at least a 10-12 inch block of this fabric, so you can really see the pattern which is what you really want. Great fabric. :thumbup: Jan

I agree!!

Glad you like the pattern! You're the second one to order it in the last 2 days. Store credit would be nice...lol!

WOW WOW beautiful. I sure wouldn't want to cut it up. so I guess I'm no help

Love the fabric. Where do you go in Moline to make pillow cases? I live in Rock Island and I might be interested in helping out with the project.

Maybe for borders or make a couple of throw pillows.
