Quilting
The Appeal of Starting With a Single 
Design
The conventional method of making patchwork requires choosing many different materials and cutting them into exact shapes. The use of a panel is another 
alternative. In the case of fabric panels, there is always an already-made design printed on them, and thus the whole picture comes right away to the 
foreground. Thus, there is no need to create all elements from the smaller pieces since you can simply create a project on top of an existing image.
Choose a Panel That Fits Your Vision
Not all panels are appropriate for all projects. You should think about this before purchasing a panel to determine its size, colors, and purpose. A fabric 
panel for quilting could be perfect to be used as a centerpiece on a bigger quilt when placed between other border fabrics. Or you could find a panel big 
enough to use it as an independent decorative element. 
Find out what main colors are featured in the print of your panel and choose corresponding fabrics. There will be no need to match them all together. 
Another aspect you should take into account is the size of the design itself.
Turn a Panel Into Something Personal 
Just because you are using a printed panel does not necessarily mean that you will end up with a preconceived finished item. The design 
surrounding it can totally transform it. Create a pieced border to give the quilt a more traditional look, or create one with modern geometric 
designs to give the quilt a modern look.
Appliqué, quilting designs, and embroidery could be used to add some 
texture to it and make it unique. Even the border of the quilt can make a 
difference as an accent color around your central design, or use 
something subtle that will allow your printed panel to stand out.
Why Fabric Quality Still Matters 
A beautifully designed quilt needs the right fabric to complement its 
design. Before starting your project, be mindful of the weight, weave, and 
texture of the fabric. Good quilting fabric tends to make cutting and 
sewing easy, and it helps the quilt hold its shape after frequent use and 
washing. When purchasing the fabric online, it is important to be cautious 
when reading fabric descriptions to ensure that the material will suit your 
design.
