PROJECTS & IDEAS | THROWS & WALL HANGINGS

In the Sky Wall Hanging

Frame one block with several borders for a small wall hanging or table topper. This wall hanging begins with a central fussy-cut airplane. Star, circle, polka dot, and mottled coordinates provide interest yet let the airplane border shine. Fabrics are from the Splash and the Moving and Shaking collections by Blank Quilting.
