This is my big (34 inch by 44 inch panel) "starting block" for the 2026 Stay At Home Round Robin, aka SAHRR. Each week one of the hosts (see list below) will provide a prompt to add a quilting element to our starting block. Typically these would be done in borders, but I have a little bit different plan.
Did I mention there will be prizes? It isn't too late to get in on the fun - just click the logo in my sidebar for more details!
This panel was part of the backing for a quilt I had on my design board last year. Hubs strolled in and saw it and said "wow that's nice, who's that for?" Well I rescued that panel and chose an alternate plan for the quilt on the design board, and now this panel will be on the front of a quilt for him!
My initial fabric pull includes some red corduroy from Hubs' old shirt,
and the blue flannel will possibly become the backing
I think these colors will work with the panel, and
I'll be looking for a touch of green and adding a few neutrals

I can't wait to see what your plan is for this panel.
ReplyDeleteThat is going to be a perfect SAHRR project. The fabric pull looks great with the panel. Lucky Hubs! You almost had me jump in this year. I have a patriotic panel that I want to do something with.
ReplyDeleteThat panel will make a great SAHRR quilt! I thought about doing a panel, but I will see how it goes with my sunflower block and then I may do a panel quilt too? Thanks for your comment on my blog, but did you know you are a no-reply? I didn't have your email to respond back to you.
