Thomas Kinkad fabric

Post by LancasterFan4 »

Help please. I purchsed 2 large Thomas Kinkad panels with houses on the front that looks like his paintings. The only other fabric I saw of his that day was what looks like his painted flowers, I purchased 2 yards of this. I bought all this in Lancaster,PA and since returning home I haven't found any more of his fabric. If anyone can help me come up with a way to use this in a quilt or if you know of a sight or book to aid in making a quilt with this fabric I would be very greatful. Thanks ahead of time.

Maybe make a picket fence border around the panel? Or green flying geese on the left and right with the last block on both sides being a brown stripe to look like a tree trunk.

Several of the QIAD books have unique borders. You could just start adding borders until you got the size you wanted.

I think it would be neat to do it this way - I wouldn't make the windows at deep as this one is shown - The pattern is Attic windows - hope this helps :o)
