I am very much enjoying having the Forget Me Not quilt home, hanging in a prominent place. While it was hanging at the gallery I made the label for it. It was a great opportunity for me to salvage yet another small treasure from Grandma, a piece of broderie perse that I removed from a completely worn pillow case.
Naturally, I couldn’t resist a chance to do a bit of beading.
You can read about the whole process of making this art quilt here, here and here.
Such a lucky granddaughter, to inherit such beauties!
I am lucky indeed, Suzanne. I love being able to share Grandma’s work with others.
Even the label is exquisite on this one-it’s my favorite piece of yours!
Thanks Jenny! I had some mighty fine inspiration on this one. Grandma gets a lot of credit.
I just love it. Now I have to do something with a piece from my grandmother.
Oh I just love inspiring other artists to action! I can’t wait to see what you do.
It is so special – I believe – so I will put it up on the blog to seek inspiration.
A grand way to remember and recognize grandma, Franki…
