What a gorgeous panel!

I'm wondering how it would look with tone-on-tone fabric or batik in colors that would radiate out from the center panel, like an ombre effect.

I look forward to seeing what you come up with. Peacocks are so gorgeous!

Something like this with the panel in the center …

I split this panel, adding both width and length to the original size. More borders would make it the size you need.

This panel called for lots of colors, so I did a borer with squares inside sashing to pull it together.

This is probably my biggest panel quilt. It would have been very easy to add another border to make it king size. I just picked blocks I liked to use around it. The first inner border is cut to fill the gap between the panel and borders.

I have that same panel and some yardage that goes with it, but have not made anything from it yet.

That is a very beautiful peacock panel... may I ask who makes it?

I would not cut that beautiful Peacock panel.

I use panels for quilts I have made for Grandsons and donation quilts. Fast, east and always beautiful.

There are fabrics that you can use for whatever you like. I would start by "squaring off" the panel. It is currently about 24x42. So add some of the scalloped border fabric to complete the border, as mentioned above. Then add borders to your heart's content to get to what you want. A standard king mattress top is 76x80.

I would personally prefer subdued borders, so as to not take attention away from that beautiful panel--at least on the mattress top.

My peacock quilt project is in blacks but I will post an in-progress picture here for you to consider. Mine when finished will fit a queen size bed to the floor on either sides. [ATTACH=CONFIG]576425[/ATTACH]

In this photo...what you see is what shows on the bed top.... I now have it built out as far as it is going, but it's good to remember the extra borders will be on the sides, so they don't take away from the centre panel.

Thank you for that link, Krisb. :o

I did the deer attic window, it turned out awesome. Just need to make sure you do your measurements correctly in order for the deer to not look distorted.
MSQC has a great tutorial to help.
