Tah-dah!!! There you have it. Appliquéd art. I’m not sure if I’ll keep it over the bed. It could be really pretty with the quilt… if I ever finish the quilt…
By the way, I’m considering tying it instead of actually quilting it. What do you think? Does anyone have any experience with that? Aside from it being faster than quilting, I think it will be easier to mend any parts that begin to dry-rot. Afterall, there are a lot of vintage fabrics worked into this beast.

Very clever artwork. It’s whimsical and fresh.
I know nothing about quilting (yet). But I love both methods. I may prefer the look of quilting to tying, but that does not mean I don’t love tying, too. :-)

It’s amazing! I’m going to mull this one over, and I just might end up with my own version of a brown-and-red one for our bedroom someday. Our bedroom walls are pitifully bare…actually, our whole room is in need of some decorating help.

Your art is great!!! And the quilt looks fabulous as well. I’ve tied quilts before and they have turned out great. I think it’s a good choice for a quilt with lots of vintage in it as you said

Okay, you need to take me under your wing. Please? Since my freedom from my job, I have suffered a lethal bite from the crafting bug. But I have no skillz. Something is telling me that I could do it if I tried. I hope it’s not lying.

The wall art is fantastic! Great colours, it does look really pretty with the quilt.
I love the idea of tying the quilt. It’s practical and diffferent. :)
