Whispers of Hope

Proudly displayed at the National Quilt Museum Exhibit, 2017

During Easter week the trees in our neighborhood had burst into bloom.  I choose this one to make into a quilt.  I had been working the thread work details on some of my quilts. I decided that the delicate blossoms on this quilt would be made totally from thread.  Hundreds of Swarovski Crystals make it sparkle!

Techniques: Mosaic Picture Piecing background, appliqué, heavy threadwork, Swarovski Crystals

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