    Default Hi Everyone Long time no see ..l've got a question please

    Hi Everyone Long time no see ......l've got a question if its ok please ..l was wondering if any of you have used the frozen panels to make a quilt ... l bought the panel with the 2 girls on it ....to use it for my niece and l was wondering if l could see some pics of finished quilts to get some ideas ..l was thinking of using plain colors (blenders) that co-ordinate with the color scheme as the fabrics which go with the panel are $20 a metre (1 metre =1.0936133 yards) ...here .... l did consider making a simple coin border in the blenders around the panel and then just bordering the coins to finish it off.. Thanks for any help ...

    This is what I did...I wanted an easy border to use with the frozen panel, and quite almost by accident, found an easy but cute border!
    i wanted a 3/4" white border to frame the panel, so cut 1-1/4" strips...then I had frozen fabric... I tried laying it out wih the grain of fabric, but didn't like the effect... So I tried on the bias, which gives an alternating Anna and Elsa, and it's almost perfect with alternating Anna and Elsa all around the border... I couldn't have planned it better if I tried!

    Kensington made two of them, she made pinwheel blocks to look like snowflakes for her border.

    Glad to see you back to quilt making!

    Thanks Guys ..Those look great ...l just want something simple and easy and the squares around the panel look great and l'm sure l could find some blenders in the co-ordinating colors to make the border.

    l went into the store to buy the fuseable hexagon papers that you iron on and leave in ...so l can make some corner stones for my chevron quilt and saw the panel ....l'm trying to finish what l've started we will see ...Thanks again.

    Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance.

    The girls I made mine for are tiny, so I just stuck with the panel with no added borders. I outline quilted the characters and background details, and it went very quickly. My husband is holding up the finished quilt, so that gives a bit of feel for the size. It's plenty big enough for the wee ones. Hi  Everyone Long time no see ..l've got a question please-frozen.jpg
