Pocket Flower Garden Quilted Wall-Hanging



This 23" x 28" quilted wall-hanging is the first I've done in a while. It's made from recycled wool, flannel and linen fabrics, cotton thread, glass beads, and buttons. The flowers are coming out of a pocket from a red flannel shirt (leftovers from some lobsters I made) and can be used for a sachet. The piecing, applique and quilting is machine done. The raw edges will fray and soften the piece over time. I decided to step out of my "rectangular" box and make the edges irregular. I'd love to hear what you think!

More info about this quilt and other items I make may be found in my shop.
