    Default Frank Lloyd Wright Tree of Life Top

    i posted about my frustration with jackie robinson's patterns a few months ago.

    i opened the box and finally finished it, with some modifications.

    i'm in no rush to quilt it, and never really wanted a wall hanging. it's practice for a commission, so in that way was instructive.

    while it's awfully pretty, i don't particularly like wall quilts. we'll see what the future holds for i, but for now i'm calling it a success.

    thanks for always being here!

    Love this. Have seen a home with this type of windows in it. Usually they were amber and browns. Love the blue version. Nicely done.

    I really like it. What did you do black lines with or how did you do them?

    This is a very striking quilt. If it is not what you like, I am certain many would. For example, I gave a wall hanging to our local senior housing meeting room.

    my husband is a huge Frank Lloyd Wright fan. He would love this and the colors would look great in his man cave!

    I love it! I am a Frank Lloyd Wright fan, and hope to someday get the courage to try a quilt like this one. TFS
