Art Quilt- Yellow Roses with Stained Glass #1- 11"x14" Wall Art

Art Quilt- Yellow Roses with Stained Glass- 11"x14" Wall Art by Sue Andrus. This art quilt began as a piece in my Botanical Applique Series with the Yellow Rose flower appliqued to a hand painted background. It originally had only an ivory border, but it needed a bit more pizzazz, so I decided to see what It would look like with a stained glass look border. The Stained Glass look border has many different hand painted, dyed and commercial fabric bits satin stitched together. The black thread in the stitching gives the stained glass look. The seam between the center applique panel and the border has a black yarn with silver metallic accent couched over it. The outer edge of the piece is bound with the same black yarn couched on to give the border even more of a stained glass look.

These piece was made with the thought of having it displayed in a frame, so there are no hanging loops or sleeve on the back. If you would like to hang this as it is, I can add hanging loops so that you can hang it on small picture hooks or even thumbtacks... Please let me know if you would want them added in the "Notes to seller" area as you are checking out. It would look wonderful framed with a matted border in a 16" x 20" frame to make it stand out even more on your wall. It also could also be displayed by stitching it to an 11"x14" or larger gallery wrapped artist canvas that has been painted or wrapped in fabric. You can see some quilts that I have mounted on canvas in the Canvas Mounted Art Quilts of my shop if you would like to see various canvas treatments I used for those quilts.
