I received delightful news the other day from my dear friend in Austria – the quilt I made his son has now been “properly hung”.
The quilt, whimsical house blocks done in a Scandinavian palette (my friend is originally from Denmark), is not just “properly hung” on the wall of his house – it is FUNCTIONALLY HUNG!
There is an electrical panel in the hallway of their house and they creatively hung the quilt with a special frame that both disguises the electrical box and gives easy access! Brilliant, eh?
(It is always so pleasing as a quilter to know that a quilt you make someone is not sitting in a closet somewhere gathering dust.)
Clever indeed. And it looks good there.

Did you really use that headline? I’m laughing right now 🙂 This is truly “functional art”!
