    Beautiful panel and fabrics. I think I'd cut the frames of the panel apart and add blocks using your three fabrics between and around the outside.

    What about......take the 2 smaller squares off the bottom and attache them one over the other on the right of the cows. Make a large 9 patch or 16 patch square of the hay bale and fields of green above them and to the right of the top 2 smaller squares. Then put a border around the whole thing.

    I'd cut them apart. I'd use the large whole scene as the center panel, border on all 4 sides with the green fields. Use the 4 smaller panels as corners, using the hay bale fabric on the top, sides & bottom between the blocks. Then I'd border with the rust fabric. Sizes would be determined by how large you want the quilt. Or border the center with the green, rust, hay bales. Then use the hay bales between the 4 corner blocks. I would bind it with the rust.
