I just finished the last of these four angels this week. I started them in November. They are approximately 16x12 and I would like to make a quilt with them and would love any ideas for patterns that I could use. Thanks for your Help!!!

I'm not sure what to do with them, I'm not on the creative side. But, they are beautiful!!!

Did you look at the bunny hill site? These are from her line aren't they? I think she has a wall hanging there you could copy.

They are beautiful. I am more for a wall hanging so you can show them as special as they are with boarders around them. They are the four seasons that can hang all year .You can even border them with the season fabric. Just show us how you finish. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Oh sorry. I think it would be very neat to make a long wall quilt that would fit above a bed or couch. I would use the modern moda florals taking the color of the embroidery threads out into the blocks. Just use your favorite blocks and some others to give it some interest and set them all together. You could draft out the pattern first and maybe make a few small embroidery blocks as fill to add too.

It would take a little time. But, bunny hill and crabapple hill both have examples you could go by.

Those angels are beautiful, and I am an angel lover. A wall hanging would be nice. A quilt would be awesome! I think if you would "frame them with coordinating seasonal fabric and then use a cloud cloud fabric.Maybe, set the angels on diagonally.
