The banner in the church.....

I received a photo yesterday of the banner I made hanging in my friend's church.  This photo was taken right after it was hung.

Hanging and with the light on it does give it a mystical look, really do like it, even a bonus the colour of the church walls really gives it some pop :)

Oh, Wanda - what a thrill to see that photo! Kudos to your friend for having the insight to know that one of your color wash pieces was EXACTLY what was needed in that space and kudos to you for creating such an eloquent work of art. Glory be!

Yup! If you can't add a stained glass window...add a beautiful quilt! Easier to wash, too. Looks great.

Your banner quilt looks beautiful in the church and is a perfect accompaniment to the minimalist decor. When I look at the photo and the overall appearance of the altar I see the light of Christ that all Christians want to tune in to.

Laura Lipe said...

Your banner is beautiful and I love how and where it is hung. I too make banners for my church and they are hung up high and we are about to redo that wall we hang them on and want to install some sort of hanger that will mean we do not have to climb up on a ladder or lift to hang them. How is yours in this picture hung? Is it a window shade hanger, or do you have a pulley system for it. I’s love to hear from you. I need some ideas!! Please write to me at lipe2@comporium.net if you have suggestions that would help us. Thank you so much!!
