Mounting Quilt Art

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

    You've been busy. It looks great mounted on the canvass. I am wondering how you attached it to the canvass?
