That is a very nice piece of art. Just curious, how many hrs went into the design???

Most of these Wall Quilts have little tiny pieces, little bitty pieces sewn together.
Beautiful work
These Quilts were recently completed. Recently is a relative term as there is always a dozen or so Quilts is some stage of completion.

My bride has worked on this for months. Hand Embroidery, colored in with Fabric Pencils, quilted, movable parts, lots of details. Anyway I took some pictures for other Grandmothers to see. It gets a 6ft brite shoelace to hold it together. I installed T-Top Eyelets for her.

My wife is a Martha Pullen licensed instructor. She doesn't, hasn't made these dresses since her Granddaughters grew out of them but we have a Great Granddaughter now so she dusted off her Pleater, hand Embroidered the front, made the entire dress from scratch.

I built her a Sewing Room across the back of the house when I took in her old one to expand the Kitchen for my equipment.
Wow! That's Awesome...
:hesaid Both the dress and room.
God has truly blessed her with some superb skills, for sure.
Those are beautiful works of art. I know you are very proud of her.
Thanks for sharing, and please pass along our thanks to her as well.
