Small Quilts

Sometimes smaller is better.

Since moving the Hoosier to another room in our house, I have a little more wall space in my studio to display some of my small quilts.  Some I've made myself but many have been gifted to me by my blogging friends.  I love them all dearly...both the quilts and my friends.  *wink*

 So what do you think?  Aren't they so cool?





Life is G-O-O-D!
Happy stitching!

    They are all so gorgeous and look stunning on your walls. :) You also have a hanger or two that I would love to have. :)

    All of those quilts are simply lovely! Certainly warms up the room... like being surrounded by your friends while quilting! I'm admiring the spool cabinet too! AND Big Bernie! :-) Enjoy!

    What a lot of eye candy! Now that's a room I could hang out in. I really like the Bee stitchery but they are all very nice.

    Love the wall of small quilts. I have a pile of them needing quilting and then I'll be doing the same. It seems like a good summer project while sitting on my deck enjoying the sunshine and my garden.

    Those are lovely, all of them. And I really like that ladder kind of hanger. What a perfect way of displaying several quilts in one place. I need to find something like that. Thanks for sharing.

    Kaaren, what a inspirational spot to sew! You've done an amazing job decorating with all of your stunning pieces. I'm quite envious of all of your many talents. I seriously don't know how you do it all, and do it all so well!! Obviously, you've figured out how to pace yourself perfectly.
