"Hope" - Our Cranes Project

Good Day,

Andy and I are amazed at Marijke van Welzen's work on the Cranes Hope Coat.

Marijke and her husband just delivered the Coat.

Andy Brunhammer and I created the Crane blocks, sent them to Marijke in the Netherlands where she created this magnificent coat.

We are enthralled with her work.

It will be included as part of our “Hope – Cranes Project” presentation and display in early 2019.

Got to find a mannequin for the Cranes Coat's display.

Here are some additional preliminary images.



The first step for our Cranes Quilt 12.40, the outline quilting has begun. The quilting design has been drafted. Something different.


Each Crane block in Cranes Quilt is a 4-inch block.

This is the 6th quilt of the Orange Set.

Our “Two Hallways” will be on exhibit August 1 through and including September 30. Location – Jimmie B. Keel Regional Library at 2902 W Bearss Avenue, Tampa, Florida.

To see previously posted quilts, there is a visual grid presentation at the bottom of the Quilts SB page. Move your cursor over any mini-picture found there and click to see an enlargement. Move your cursor to the "Q#" link to see the quilt's details. If the quilt’s title is highlighted in yellow, it has found a home in a collection and is no longer available.

Please let me know if anything on the Blog site does not properly work. I’m always striving to make sure an ease of use.

If you are interested and would like some more information of the available quilts, regarding costs, shipping, and insurance, please get in touch with us Quilts SB, at jsmith58@gmail.com.

Enjoy,

Jim and Andy
