I have to make a lap quilt for a 290 lb man. Found these in my stash and need some ideas. The panel is 45" x 35 1/2", 3 yds of blue and 2 yd of ocean fabric. I am not using batting. I want to use a flannel backing.

Have you seen the ones made to look like windows.
You cut the panel apart about 1/4 on each side and top & bottom, and then sew back together with sashing in the attic windows technique.
