    For the panel I would cut the sections apart and add pieced quilt blocks (log cabin is my favorite for panels) made from coordinating fabrics.

    I found it in a fabulous quilt shop in Fl but Favorite Fabrics (a QB regular) also has it in her store. I wonder if I can get a discount for sending folks her way! :lol: Seriously her prices were better than what I paid & I think I might be doing some shopping with her myself.

    I would put the brown/blue circles with the latte cloth for place mats or table topper. The Modern fabric would go with the panels. cut apart and worked together in wall-hanging or doll quilts. The traveling browns would make great totes.

    For the fabric, you might want to consider using the "Turning Twenty" pattern. It is easy and beautiful. The fabrics you chose are beautifully coordinated.

    I love your panel, it is precious. I love the brown and blues together, you could make a stepping stone type quilt, the one with one large rectangle and two diffrent size squares to make one block. God bless. Penny

    Yes you all did! The fabric just wouldn't let me make anything except placemats from it. Every time I thought of something different it just yelled "No Way!" So today I cut out 10 placemats~ 6 for myself & 4 for my DIL. That used up almost all of it but a yard of the stained glass. I'll make a few pads for a hot dish too. Thanks for your input!!

    :P
