    What a gorgeous piece of fabric! I would be hesitant to cut into it, too!
    Please show us what you make!

    I would fussy cut 'pictures' from the focus, put a dark green narrow border around them to isolate the 'Pictures' Add differnt width sashing around each to make all your blocks the same size, then sew them together. At least that is how I would start...I usually make design changes as I go forward. This is just the kind of challenge I love! The photo is the back of a quilt that I wanted to use the rest of the focus fabric from the front. It was done the way that I just described. With such beautiful fabrics you can't go wrong!
