Palm tree quilt
 
2 Attachment(s)
My daughter wanted a wall hanging to remind her of her happy place. I'm not an "art" quilter by any means! So this was a stretch for me. I used the facing technique for binding. Interesting method. It's not straight, but it will suffice!

That is beautiful!!! You did an amazing job, is this your own design ?

feline fanatic 03-24-2017 05:03 AM

I like it!

Crqltr 03-24-2017 05:07 AM

Very pretty! It does look like a happy place!

alikigirl 03-24-2017 05:12 AM

Beautiful, I am sure she will love it. I am not familiar with the facing technique for binding. I am going to check it out.

Lovely! I think I have the exact same carpet in my sewing room.:)

mommessy 03-24-2017 05:34 AM

Yes, I just looked at paintings of palm trees then just free hand drew them. But I am not an artist. So they are a little rough! Lol

BrendaK 03-24-2017 06:28 AM

Well this doesn't look rough to me. I would say that you did a very smooth job. It's beautiful and your daughter should be pleased. BrendaK

It worked beautifully! Great quilt!

cashs_mom 03-24-2017 06:09 PM

I think after this one you might qualify as an art quilter! Very nice.

busy fingers 03-24-2017 09:22 PM

That is certainly a "happy place". Well done.

Teddybear Lady 03-24-2017 10:47 PM

I think you did a fantastic job!

copycat 03-25-2017 02:24 AM

You are an art quilter now! It makes me happy seeing this pretty scene. Your daughter will love it! :)

I think your palm tree wall hanging is gorgeous. I really like the colors and style you used. I also like the facing binding effect. I think you have found a new niche-art quilting. Perfect for this project. I am amazed that more quilters don't use it. It is easy to do and very effective.

mandyrose 03-25-2017 03:10 AM

oh! so pretty I always want to try the facing technique but I always forget about it.

twinkie 03-25-2017 03:55 AM

I think you did great.

Karamarie 03-25-2017 03:55 AM

Not an art quilter - I think different. Great job!

Moonglow 03-25-2017 04:01 AM

Wonderfully tropical. Nicely done.

celwood 03-25-2017 04:02 AM

WOW. I absolutely love it. You did a great job

carolynjo 03-25-2017 05:54 AM

I think you did an amazing job in drafting that lovely little quilt. Every time she looks at the quilt, she is sure to smile.

salederer 03-25-2017 06:38 AM

You did a great job! Lovely wall hanging.

Innov8R 03-25-2017 08:52 AM

Wow! If that's your own design it is doubly awesome.
