Over the last year I have been collecting/making items for my quilty inspiration wall. The wall that I face when I am sewing. I thought it would be nice to be able to look at that wall and feel inspired while I was sewing. The ladies from the birthday club I am went all out to help me decorate my creative space! Each item on the wall is truly precious to me and has a unique story that cheers me up whenever I look up from my sewing.
Starting on the upper left is an amazing wall hanging from @chelsiecreates on Instagram. I just love the colors and brightness.
Second column from the left at the top is a stunning rainbow inspired drunkards path wall hanging from @rooibosmom also on Instagram. Below that is a beautiful little wooden painting my mom gave me of a classic treadle and a woman sewing. I love how dolled up she is to sew – especially since I’m usually in my jammies! Below that is another wall hanging/mug rug from one of my friends in my Modern Quilt Guild – @4BAGGYS we were in a swap, the cool thing is that she made it using fabrics from my stash! And below that is a gorgeous wall hanging my mom made years ago in a class. I found the top in her stash and brought it home to quilt and bind. I just LOVE it so much!
At the top of the middle column is a stunning wall hanging from @plumpatchwork, I was blown away when this ended up in my mailbox last month! Below that wall hanging is some artwork by my wonderful Anne. As she inspires most of what I do, I can’t imagine her not being represented!
Second from the right is a stunning wall hanging by @weshallsew – oh my goodness, don’t you just love those hexies and the colors are SO me!
Finally, all the way to the right, is a crazy quilt block I made to try out some embroidery techniques. One day I will be making a real crazy quilt and this was a good test run for me.
So there you have it! My little inspiration wall. I plan to continue to add to it and I’m pretty sure that Anne does too! Do you have an inspiration wall?
I don’t really, though I have things pinned around here and there. Mostly it’s either things I want to remember to finish, or things that have emotional importance to me because of the origin. I love your wall, though. Such a nice variety of things, which can’t help but fit different moods! I’m so glad you have something of your own up there, too!
What a neat idea… kinda like a scrapbook on the wall. How fun!
Clever!! How sweet you had such wonderful help!
I love your inspiration wall!
Not like yours. Mine has things the kids made foe me when they were young/still at home. Brings back fond memories and puts a smile on my face !
They’re gorgeous 🙂
