    Default pillow panels

    Hello all,

    Any ideas what to make with pillow panels other than pillows?

    Table runners and center panels or non-centered panels for quilts with additional quilt patches to fill in. The Amish are calling them table toppers. YOu can make the quilts any size. Good luck.

    Could you maybe make them into a quilt? Put borders around each panel and then sew them together?

    You can use them in a quilt, just ad borders. I have seen them as wall hangings too. You can use them any way that you want.

    Quilts, table runners, placemats, aprons, totes...I use them like any other fabric print. Many of my quilts have blocks that started out as pillow panels.
    heres 2.

    A group of us were working on some giveaway quilts and using some of the stuff we had on hand. Those panels were an odd size and someone had given me those stars, so I just added to make everything fit.
    So you can intersperse the panels with other blocks and make a nice quilt.

    I made this quilt, one of the few original pattern I came up with.
