    I would square it up and use it as a center panel on a wall hanging. Maybe use the reds/pinks/golds and make miniature blocks for the borders? Its such a pretty panel

    Does she like couch or bed pillows? It would make a pretty pillow. A wall hanging, table topper or center of a French Braid table runner would be pretty too. Maybe a center for a bed runner?

    It would make a lovely tote front. There are lots of free patterns for totes.

    Since it is only 13x13, I would'nt make anything too big, you want the panel to be the focus, I would make a 16 or 18 inch pillow. Its very beautiful!!
