I finished my practice wall hanging this afternoon. Well, it isn't exactly "finished" as it would need to be framed before hanging if I wanted it truly complete. But I enjoyed this project and I hope to find some red colors tomorrow at the craft store to see if I can blend my favorite colors into a hanging piece too. Doing this practice piece helped me understand how colors should be placed. I have never done a patchwork quilt before so all of this is new and fun to me. This was a wonderful way to pass a snowy afternoon in Montana!Tuesday, January 30, 2007
The wall hanging is done.

Very nice, but exactly what is it made of? If it is fabric and you sewed it all, then you work very fast. I thought quilts took for ages to put together.

Hi Keewee...yes, quilts can take ages to put together. But with my worn out hands I am no longer able to do very much sewing so I came up with this project that is made up of paper. It is of course put together just as the quilt pattern but with just glue instead. Encased in a picture frame with glass it looks pretty authentic as a quilt but much smaller and it was a lot of fun!
