"Panel Projects"

You guys loved our Panel Pillow Case Project idea that we did with Soar and Whispering Pines so we put together some more FABULOUS ideas for you to make with your panels!

1. Apron

An apron is a fun way to elevate your panel and makes a great compliment to the chef! 

Look what we did with the Chair of Bowlies Panel and Border Print

2. Pillow Case

Just in case you missed our Panel Pillow Case blog post, here is a quick run down. Certain panels can turn into SEWWW cute pillow cases if they have the right directional print. 

Use this free pattern from Riley Blake Designs "Roll Up Pillow Case" to make your own! 

We also have a video tutorial that you can follow along with! 

3. Tote Bag 

Block Panels are perfect way to add style to your bag! This tote bag uses cut outs from the block panel as pockets on both sides of the bag! How ingenious!

4. Quilt 

Of course panels are used to make quilts all the time, and there's a reason for it! Panel Quilts are simple and stunning, the perfect combo!

  

Panel images can elevate your quilt and be completed quicker than making unique blocks. They make great center pieces in your house or beautiful gifts for friends.

5. Throw Pillows 

Some panels are specifically made to be turned into pillows! 

We love what Bev from Flamingo Toes did with this National Parks Pillow Panel from Riley Blake Designs, she includes everything you need in her blog!

6. Wall Hanging 

Some Panels are just too gorgeous, they need to be on display at all times. Turning a panel into a wall hanging makes easy yet stunning decor for any holiday or year round. 

These panels are designed to be quilts or wall hangings, but can be used in any way you wish!

7. Curtains

Panels can be a great way to spice up a window! You can make curtains using just the panel or add more yardage to make them any size you want!

8. Cut Out Panels

These panels are great to sew with since they give you the project within the panel! 

Some great examples are this Advent Calendar Panel, Shark Plushies/Pillow Panel, Turtle Bay Tote Bag Panel, or the Peace, Love, & BBQ Apron Panel! 

 

All of these panels come with the instructions and pieces you need to complete the project! How simple & fun!
