Bird on a Branch wall hanging
 

My mother-in-law asked to create a wall quilt to go above their bed in their newly decorated/painted bedroom. I gave her a 'coupon' for one at Christmas time and worked on it all of January. Hardest part was finding a suitable pattern and fabrics. So many options and I wanted to do right be her! This was a lot of fun to create because of the larger applique pieces and it was my first time machine quilting feathers. They loved how it turned out! I kept her in suspense for a month so she didn't know what to expect. It is roughly 2 feet x 4.5 feet and the fabric is from the Stonehenge line. Pattern was off the internet called Bird on a Branch from Piece O'cake Design and I modified it slightly to make it horizontal versus vertical. Always satisfying to know that someone truly appreciates your hard work! On to the next project....!:)

Wow you did a wonderful job tying everything together and giving it a focus with your hanging!

Beautiful, I would say you definitely did right by her

Oh wow it looks beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great job. It's just beautiful.

That is beautiful, good work and lovely color combinations.

Beautiful wallhanging

Now, I'm going crazy because I think that I have the book with that in it and I can't find it. I think it is so great that you made it your "own" with the change in direction AND the wonderful color choices. It is just beautiful. Great quilting too.

Thanks so much, I just downloaded it. Your work is beautiful. Love the way you put it on the side.

That is beautiful. I have that pattern and thought about extending the branch to add another bird and changing the direction of the bird to make it a table runner. Thanks for sharing
