Cotton fabrics, bamboo hanger.
Technical challenges: The starting point for this quilt was a screen print of an Asian temple in a forested setting with a koi pond in the foreground. I cut it up and rearranged the pieces into a more cubist design along with several other fabrics. I knew I wanted to display the piece on this bamboo hanger, which has a fixed rod so a typical hanging sleeve would not work. The tabs-with-Velcro solution seemed easy in theory. But sewing anything with Velcro is not easy at all. Threw away the first several attempts.
