    I give all my quilts away. Had the idea to decorate the bathroom with enlarged photos of my icon and a mini cathedral quilt I have done.

    Turned out ok.. a bit pixelled but then, it is wall art.
    Those of you have asked to post final product ! one wall in bathroom is blue, accent with large mirror. A photo of that wall is just a picture of me holding a camera! Boo. not that interesting ! So, bathroom not all white.
    picture of one wall, the cathedral photo can be seen in a mirror above the sink!

    That is a great idea to frame photos of what you created. Clever. Thank you for sharing.

    Love your idea of taking pictures of your quilts and placing them in frames. This may be how I redecorate a bedroom since all of the quilts I have made so far have been given away as gifts. Thank you for sharing.

    exactly.. all my quilts are to give away.. I have found the idea of keeping a quilt diary..

    The Bathroom is not a place to hang a fabric wall hanging, or small quilt.. so, the photo was the next best thing.

    Thanks for the compliments everyone ! Fun project !
