Fantasia Tree Panel, need idea for quilt
Hello, stopped by my local fabric store the other day and have always admired the Fantasia Tree Panel by Timeless Treasures. They only had one left made into a kit for a wall hanging so I grabbed it quickly. They also had just short of 9 yds of the blue argyll fabric that circumfrances the panel. Thought it would make a great backing plus more for possible sashing. Also picked up 3 yds of the floral fabric and a fuschia fabric they used in the wall hanging. Went over to Hancock of Paducah (online) and ordered 3 yds more of the argyll fabric to be sure I have enough. Now comes the problem of designing a quilt around the panel. Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Sorry for the fuzziness of the photo but I'm sure you get the idea. The wall hanging had log cabin blocks to the left side but I'm hoping for other ideas too. I'll add fabrics in the bright colors from the panel from my stash once I figure out what I'm going to do.
Thanks loads to all who respond.

I searched on this site for the quilts using this panel and found the fractured one and one completely different. Also searched the web for any quilts using this panel. Either I'm not doing it correctly or there hasn't been many done. Will continue searching but would still appreciate suggestions on what blocks and layout would do this panel justice for a queen size bed quilt.

Tartan, yes those are the pics I found too. Like the idea of the large quilt but was hoping for block suggestions though maybe with this panel blocks might take away from the beauty of the panel so may need to keep it simple.
Thanks.
Thanks.
