    I made this queen size quilt for my son and he loves it.
    However yesturday I was going thru my moms stash and found these blue wolf panels. My son Loves them and now wants another quilt.
    I am looking for new ideas and was wondering if you could post your pictures of quilts made with panels. I have searched the internet and didnt find that many ideas.
    Thank you for all your help

    this was just posted and may be your answer. Log cabins would look great with them. I love the panels and your quilt is awesome.

    Try the Hancocks of Paducah website. There are a few free patterns using panels. Just click on the heading "free patterns". If you want them mailed there is a fee, however many of them can be downloaded to your computer for free.

    Instead of another quilt, what about making a wallhanging and pillows out of them?

    I was about to suggest attic windows for the fabric on the left. When I looked for the attic window picture thread, I found out that the first quilt in this thread actually uses this very fabric. LOL :D

    I tend to square them out with a small border since they are never straight. I make it to an even inch plus seam allowance that is divisible by 2. Then I do a checkerboard border that has a 2"finished blocks in it two rows wide. Then I just border it out with fabric. Sometimes to make it get taller and not wider I only put borders top and bottom. I'm doing an eagle panel from Nancy's Notions right now
