Great Strip Quilts from Painted Panels

We love this new kind of print. They're not really panels, but they do feel like a panel. They're a yard long repeat of a painted image. But how do you make them into a quilt?
Here's a great idea.
If you cut them into strips and separate them with another fabric it looks like light shimmering through.  
Simple. Stunning.
This quilt was made with different width strips, but you could use the same width for a realistic look. The changes in size make a more contemporary feel.
There are all kinds of these painted panel quilts available. Imagine what you could do with these?
And, it's the easiest quilt you'll ever piece. Come into Threadbenders and see the great painted panels that could be your next masterpiece.
