If you like my designs, please tell your friends. Description: One of a kind, machine stitched, original art quilt or baby quilt. Machine washable. Batik and printed cotton fabric. Batting is 80% cotton, 20% polyester for stability. The back face consists of a single printed or batik cotton fabric (shown in close-up photo). The binding is French double fold style. I make these quilts in my home, a smoke- and pet-free environment. Use: Equally suitable for crib use in the nursery, OR as a fabric art wall hanging using the sleeve on the back. Dimensions: Approx 45" x 44" (1,14m x 1,12m). Condition: New. Care: Quilts should not be dry cleaned; the chemicals will harm the colors. I do not pre-wash the batting, so it will shrink somewhat when the quilt is washed, giving it an "antique quilt" look. The quilt will get softer the more it is washed.

I know this quilt will become an heirloom - passed down to future generations. Thank you very much!!" - Carol M. (MD) "My husband and I don't know how to thank you enough!!! The quilt [Always a New Sky] is spectacular, it has surpassed all our expectations! It brought so much vibrance, intensity and life into the room! And the size is perfect -- if it were any bigger, it would be overwhelming! We love everything about it -- the composition, color combination, fabric combination,.....etc, etc!!! We are so honored to have your work in our home!!!! Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOO much!" - Masha I. (VT) "The quilt [Arco Iris por la Mer] arrived yesterday. It's exquisite! I'm delighted with it and will treasure it appropriately. The name is a perfect fit! Thank you so much!" - Meera K. (AK) "I recieved the quilt [Magic Boxes] today! It is so beautiful, it just gives you the best feeling when you see it! My sister and I have our own opinions about who the different squares remind us of... we even suggested the boxes might really be magic! Maybe we will pin our wishes on them! Your art is a wonderful gift to give to the world and thank you so much for sharing it with me. I can't wait to tell others about it." - Anna H. (AZ) "I received the quilt [Bubbles in a Rainbow] yesterday and it is fantastic!! I absolutely LOVE it! I commend you on your artistry. The quilt is so unlike any quilt I have ever seen and it looks STUNNING on my wall. To me it is a piece of art just like my other artwork except it happens to be made of fabric. It is now displayed in a very prominent place in my home. I can't wait to see other people's reaction to it. Your quilts are not just for nurseries! And what a nice touch the fabric case is that it came in - very classy. THANK YOU! I am very happy with my purchase and will treasure this for a long, long time." - Allan M. (CA) “…I wanted to let you know how THRILLED I am with your work. The photos of the quilt [Square Dancing] just didn't do the quilt justice in my opinion. It is beautiful and exciting and will be the centerpiece and inspiration for what we will do with the rest of the nursery decor. It is so wonderful to have a one-of-a-kind item of this quality. THANK YOU." – Stephanie T. (OH) "I LOVE this quilt [Building Blocks]. I did a search on 'art quilts batik,' as I am a fan of batiks and was looking for a gift for my niece." -Ann D. (HI) Q&A: Q:"Your quilting designs are beautiful. May I ask what type of quilting machine/design templates you use?" A:"I do not use a quilting machine or design template at all. I create all my own quilting designs, piecing and stitching. The machine I use for sewing & quilting is my home sewing machine, a Bernina 1008. Playing with color in adapting traditional designs has been great fun. I employ a free-motion quilting technique to enhance the design. Thank you for your compliment. Jane Hicks" Place a Bid!
