sewbizgirl, it is a Timeless Treasures panel.

Thank you all for your ideas! I can't wait to put these to use and get started!!
I will post when I finish! :) |
I love this idea! I thought about half square triangles, but wasn't sure how busy it would look. This one looks amazing!!

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. |
Krisb, thank you for the link! I will certainly use these fabric choices. I have struggled to find matching fabric.

That panel is gorgeous! Look at the avatar for ArtsyOne. Does that give you any ideas? Look how she made that smaller center design the focus but framed it several times, creating the larger piece. Nicely done. A shadow box design might work with this same idea??

I have the same panel and also the switchplate (for the light), almost identical. The room is light blue. I haven't started on mine yet, but I have been collecting peacock like fabrics. I'm like you, really up in the air on how to do it. Please let me know what you decide.

I might put the panel in the middle and use French Braid columns in the same peacock colours. French Braids kind of look like long feathers to me.

I made a peacock panel quilt last year and I wanted it to look like it was in an Oriental Garden. I used a cobblestone fabric on the bottom for the walkway, and Oriental Lanterns framing the peacock. It came out awesome and is one of my many favorites! Have fun with it!!
|
Such wonderful ideas (and quilts)....look forward to seeing your quilt when you are done.

I did a panel with French Braid on the top but you can also add it on the sides. It really turned out well.
