Vanishing Homestead

Proudly displayed at the National Quilt Museum Exhibit, 2017

While traveling in Northern Oregon, we happened to see this old farm, which looked perfect.  I imagined that the family had just walked away from it and it was slowly deteriorating. We were intrigued by the beauty and sadness of it.

Techniques: Painted scene on fabric. Heavily quilted. Piping and binding at edge.

All wall quilts have a "sleeve" attached at the top back for easy hanging using a dowel, or curtain rod.
