My Brother J's Wedding Wall Art

 
 
The picture for the wall hanging was art from the "Save the Date" card.
 My Mom had the idea and we took a ride to Keepsake Quilting in Center Harbour, NH, to pick out the fabrics.
 
I cut out the buildings and mountain with fusible web backing and laid them out on a white background.
The swirly water fabric was an awesome pick!
 
 
After Stitching - Applique
 
 
Most everything was appliqued with black thread. Some of the windows are white appliqued squares and some are drawn on with a permanent fabric marker. The fabric choices have some funky patterns.
The PUBLIC MARKET CENTER sign was stitched in red. The wall art was then quilted and bordered in red.
 
Finished Gift

 
My new sister Tracy and my brother J, with myself, on the presentation day!
 
We had all the attendees at the wedding sign the back with well wishes and love!
