hometown!

they're a few things about this new year that i'm super excited about and one of them is my exploration of interpretation quilts. ( mind you... they probably have some kind of other... super clever name that i don't know!  hahaha ) but, basically they are my designs inspired by places i love. and i lOVE my hometown Portland, Oregon! You'll find a very modern city, with an industrial edge, some cloudy days... but an overall a peaceful place to live. well... that how i hope i conveyed it anyways!! LOL

this is the first wall hanging, i have EVER hung in my home and i'm pretty excited about it!
i'm already very excited to start on another piece... :)



( 20" X 30" )

hope your week is bringing lots of excitement too!!
Xo, Heather

It kinda looks like the floorplan of a house. Very cool. You just gave me an idea. Thanks
