I completed a wall quilt with all blocks of calico on which I did colonial knot designs - in bathroom, calico likes steam and does not wrinkle - unlike my ancient skin, ha,ha!

Hi Everyone, I have a lapsize quilt folded in thirds and hung it over one towel rack with vintage hand towels on top for a layered look. It is a nice way to display vintage items and it is in the guest bath so there isn't much moisture in the air besides, I live in the high desert and any extra moisture would sure be welcome! It always makes me smile when I look at it.

I have a small house, that has many doors and many windows -- and thus very little wall-space. Despite that handicap, I've managed to hang one or more quilts in nearly every room! :lol:
My front bathroom has this little mini (~18" square), which perfectly matches the colors of the wall, counter, and shower curtain. We recently remodeled our master bath and I've got my first paper-pieced mini there (was supposed to have been a gift, but the iron-on stipple transfer I used didn't come out entirely; it's "good enough" for my use, but I didn't want to give it to someone else). I also made a bento-box for over the toilet in the new area, but after I got it hung I realized I'd botched the pattern. :oops: I've got one of those cute 3-D pinwheels in process and will post a photo of it once Christmas is over. |
I have a quilted panel of Lighthouses hanging in my bathroom to match lighthouse with 3 small drawers for cotton balls etc

Have seen where they make the valance, shower curtain, a mat on the back of the toilet and trim on the towels to match and it looked very nice.

The picture I have in my avatar here is hanging in my guest bathroom. It my favorite so far.

Ohhh....just thought about another idea for the bathroom. Making quilted sleeves around the hand lottion bottle to match. Could even make a ruffle the lenth of the mirror.

I know I have seen paterns for quilted shower curtains...

Yes, I have a wallhanging hanging in all my bathrooms. Usually it was a challenge project. Jan
