Make a Quick and Easy Kid’s Quilt with the New Custom Panel

August 30, 2024

Have you seen the Zoo Family Portrait Quilt?

It’s my most popular pattern; some of you have probably made it! With hundreds of foundation paper pieced components, it is a masterpiece project.

Now, I have an option for anyone who loves the design but doesn’t have the time or desire to take on an extensive foundation paper-pieced design.

The Zoo Family Portrait is now available as a panel! 

Ways to use the Zoo Family Panel

There are several great ways to use this fun printed panel:

  • Create a quick kid’s quilt.
  • Whip up a fast baby shower gift.
  • Cut a panel up to make coordinating pillows.
  • Turn it into a colorful tote bag.
  • If you have already pieced the quilt, you can use this panel to practice quilting motifs before diving into your masterpiece.

About the Printing

Paintbrush Studios (PBS) custom-printed this panel. They print fabrics that you’ll find at many of your favorite fabric shops, and I used their line of Painter’s Palette Solids to create the original quilt. PBS even prints in the USA!

This panel is 100% Cotton and printed using environmentally friendly methods.

Panel Size

The printed area of this panel measures approximately 41″ x 56″, which is smaller than the foundation paper pieced version’s 60″ x 84″. This size makes it perfect for kid’s room decor, a tummy time quilt, or for the littles in your life to drag along on their adventures.

Are you ready to turn this panel into your next project?
