I'm seconding the use of Attic Windows for your wildlife fabric. It's an easy pattern to make and there are lots of examples on Google.

Thanks for sharing all the great pattens!

Anything that highlights a center square. On a basic level, think of a churn dash where the outsides frame that center. And you can make the center any size you want. Any sort of modified log cabin that starts with as large a square as you want (even different sizes in different blocks) and build the logs to finish to the desired block size. This is also very handy if there are a lot of colors in the focus fabric because you can use them all and in different blocks. This allows for each block to highlight the critter and yet for a cohesiveness to the whole quilt top.

There are some patterns by Maple Island (think that is the name) and they use big squares that might work for your large figures.

I like the BQ2 pattern by Maple Island I also like that quick strippie quilt - but I don't have a link to it

I love View from the Cabin. It combines room for a large scale print with the traditional log cabin blocks. It can be purchased through Twin Cities Quilting, 651-340-8263. They don't sell their patterns on-line.

I like Attic Window quilts (though I've never made one myself). Some are done to make it look like a continuous scene outside the window, but others are done with different panels in each frame.
You can also treat it like a center panel and add assorted pieced borders around the center. |
