Bear in the Forest Panel Pattern

Create a cozy cabin quilt that’s as inviting as it looks. Begin with a bold fabric panel at the center—maybe a majestic bear, or whatever design speaks to you. Then surround it with classic bear paw blocks and playful pieced tree blocks, building a frame that draws the eye inward. The sample uses a bear panel, but honestly, any 30" x 42.5" fabric panel you love will look just as striking.
