One thing that elevates quilt art to a higher level is the method by which it hangs. I have chosen to mount my face series on canvases so that they hang just like a painting. After adding a fused binding to "The Two Sisters," it was mounted on a black canvas - black to match the binding. This makes it "pop off the wall" in the same way a painting does. It also allows a standard "picture wire" hanging method.
The binding was cut with a wavy edged rotary blade and fused into place. It was then sewn down to insure that it remains firmly attached.
Until Next Time,
Stay Creative
