Cliffs in Ireland Wall Hanging for my DS's 54th b'day
 
2 Attachment(s)
My DS and DDIL went to Ireland and took this photo. My son loves it and so do I. I decided to try my hand at a landscape wall hanging and this is the result. I am posting the photo and the wall hanging. I still have to add batting and backing; quilt it, bind it and then give it to him on Christmas Eve. His birthday is the 27th of December.
1st the photograph and 2nd the wall hanging. Yolanda Wood River

What an amazing job and the photo really lends itself, as few do, to fabric recreation. I am so very impressed, I can't begin to tell you how much I admire your art.

Congratulations

How do you do this? I have seen other pic of this and wonder how you do it. Is there a class or a book tell you how to do it. It is beautiful.

Spectacular! I can't believe this is your first try at a landscape quilt! Did you take a class or anything? I wouldn't begin to know where to start on doing a quilt like that. Your fabric choices are perfect!
