I recently made ten 12" x 12" quilts, five tuning forks and five based on mineral thin sections. I have seen other quilters mount their works on canvas, and thought it was a very nice presentation. But I hadn't really thought about how I would do it until I ran into Cindy Grisdela at the SAQA conference in Lincoln.
First, the new pieces. Each, as I said, is 12" x 12" and mounted on canvas, wired for hanging.

Cindy was nice enough to give me detailed instructions. And she has recently posted a tutorial on mounting small art quilts on canvas. If you are interested in her technique, check it out

These pieces will debut at the show on Sunday, and are available for $150 each.
I'm linking this post to Nina-Marie's Off the Wall Friday, Confessions of a Fiber Addict and Crazy Mom Quilts Finish it up Friday. Go see all the wonderful work there!

I love all these pieces. All similar yet very different. ~smile~

Best of luck with your solo exhibit. It looks fabulous. Great walls, lighting and stunning work.
