Borders
Do you need to make that quilt larger by adding borders?
Do you want something other than plain borders?
Check out the borders at Quilter's Cache or at TLC Quilt Borders.
There are several border options that would add interest to a panel. Or embellish your borders with rick rack, ribbon or lace.

Challenge
I challenge each of you to design a quilt using one of the panels. The panel is 24" wide by the width of fabric.You can do as many as you want but each one needs to be different. I would like to display the completed quilts in October when we display the quilts the kids design.

Road Trip Quilt
I saw this quilt at Cluck Cluck Sew and thought it would be perfect for Project Linus. You can get the pattern free here. It finishes 36"x40". Ten fabrics cut 4 1/2" WOF make this. This would look great using scraps or coordinated fabrics.
