Serenity Tree Art Quilt
Sisters In Stitches
(see more by this artist)
The art quilt wall hanging is hand quilted by the textile artist, to complement the abstract design. The binding is also hand applied.
In the center is a “Serenity” tree that is the place where we all can go for solace and peace during the troubled times of our life. The fabric in the tree top is a reproduction fabric from the William Morris Collection (1834-1896). It is heavily echo quilted.
Framing the tree is a white border representing the “fence” that keeps the atmosphere around the tree peaceful. Interlocking leaves are quilted in the white border.
The next two borders are asymmetrical and represent the influences in our lives. The red is for the anger we experience sometimes in our life. The black for the dark periods we may experience.
Two opposing corners have pinwheels that represent the out of control feelings we sometimes have, and the other two corners are the rigid “black and white” views that we encounter.
The goal of the Serenity Tree wall hanging is to have you focus on leaving the bad influences outside of yourself and go into the peaceful, quiet, serene garden and sit under your Serenity Tree and rejuvenate your soul.
The quilting stitches are heirloom-quality and greatly enhance the overall design of the piece. This is finely detailed hand quilting that is only achieved after years of practice. The dense hand quilting over the whole wall hanging gives this piece a unique, textured quality.
This is truly a piece of art that will grace your walls for years to come. The back of the wall hanging is covered traditionally, with unbleached muslin and is signed and dated by the quilter.
Hanging sleeves are already sewed on the back for ease of display. All fabrics in the wall hanging are 100% cotton. The batting used is also 100% cotton.
This wall hanging is machine washable and dryable. Complete care instructions are included as well as inexpensive directions for hanging the piece “invisibly”. Crafted in a smoke-free and animal-free environment.
