    I made a lap size quilt for my DGDS using MM fairy panel as the center. I used a coordinating panel that was made of small blocks (5x7) of the same fairy fabric and also used a plain matching color fabric for a border. Most of the panel fabrics have matching smaller block fabric and also coordinting solid color fabric. If i were making the quilt that big then I would add color borders and then put the small blocks on the side so they hung down. do a search for MM fairy fabric. There are many site including Amazon, Etsy and ebay that carry this fabric. Also there are several shops in the NE ohio area that have it in stock. Good luck!!!

    My DGD loves their quilts. Also check Amazon for a book called "Cicely Mary Barker's Flower fairy" the MM fabric is based on the drawing in this book by this author. She is the originator of the "Flower Fairies" with many drawings and poems aboutfor fairy for each flower. Also there is a companion book called " girls quide to flower Fairies" that is also based on her fairies. the book has stories,games,crafts, fairy food recipies, and how to choose your fairy name. I got both these books for my DGD who really loved the books. In fact we had a fairy tea party on "mid summer day" last year based on ideas from this book. What fun we all had!!!!!!! I think we are going to have another tea party this year!!!
