Coasters - New Styles

 Hi, I've taken advantage of an old theme with these coasters that may take many of your down memory lane. More images can be found on the coasters page. These coasters can certainly be mixed and matched to suit your specific tastes. If you have an idea for a 'Keep Calm and ........' let me know and I will make a set for you.

Wall Hanging - in progress

Similar to 'Live'. In progress. Beading and embellishments to come.

Wall Hanging - Live

This wall hanging has a beige batik and cotton patchwork background. The foreground fabrics are blue and green batiks. Many beads and found objects embellish the piece. The colors blue and green give me energy,  'Live' seemed an appropriate name. 17.25 inches square.

Wall Hanging - Tranquiity

This wall hanging was influenced by a very neat and tidy contemporary house I visited a few weeks previous. I used several batik fabrics and horizontal free motion quilting in the grey area. It has an Asian feel to me. 30 inches long x 21 inch wide.
