In one of the linen lots I thrifted this year was this pre-quilted panel of Christmas kitchen things. In keeping with my promise to stop hating the holidays I decided to cut them out and finish them.
I think I did a baby blanket from a panel like this when I first started quilting, back in the Jurassic era, but that's all I've done with panels. Basically you cut out the pieces and sew on bias tape, which isn't hard at all. It also gave me a chance to practice using my sewing machine to attach binding, something I want to learn to do well. I used vintage bias tape I've been saving from other thrifts.
Here are the finished apron, oven mitt and potholders.
