Welcome to My Wall Hangings Page

I have made numerous wall hangings varying in size and design. Included on this page are some of our favorites

 

Grandma's Album I

This wall hanging is a combination of pieced and appliqued squares. It is hand appliqued, machine pieced and hand and machine quilted. This was one of my favorite projects.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hawaiian Wall Hanging - the background and foreground were purchased while we were in Hawaii several years ago. Many of the Hawaiian quilters were very accessible to the public and offered classes in the corridors of the mall. Naturally, I took the class! The wall hanging is hand appliqued and hand quilted in the echo style of quilting that is unique to Hawaiian quilts.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Irrigation Festival Logo

The Chairman of the 1998 Irrigation Festival asked me to make the 1998 logo in fabric. The wall hanging was auctioned off at the Kick-off dinner that opened the festival. This was the first time I had ever attempted to do a picture from scratch and I had my doubts at first. The fabric logo brought in over $600 for the festival! It was very well received.

 

The wall hanging was machine pieced, hand appliqued and machine quilted. The lettering is done by hand also.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wedding Announcement

 

A friend brought me a black and white picture of her daughter's wedding announcement. She wanted it made up in fabric and framed. It is hand appliqued, hand pieced and machine quilted.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Photographer

Our neighbor is a professional photographer and I made this wallhanging in appreciation for all the nice things he had done for us. (This picture is from a Norman Rockwell drawing.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1999 Irrigation festival logo wallhanging

I completed the 1999 wallhanging and donated it to the festival to again be auctioned off. It is hand appliqued and machine pieced.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This wall hanging was made by a friend that called me and said "teach me to quilt". This is a wall hanging she completed as a 50th Anniversary gift for her mother-in-law. Not bad for a beginner. When I told her to go by her fabric, she had to buy her first sewing machine as well!

 

 

 

 

Grandma's Album II

I liked Grandma's Album I so much that I made the second quilt designed by the same man. This quilt has been made for my daughter in Anchorage, Alaska. It was as enjoyable to make as the first one.
