Lighthouses
Lighthouses

Hand appliqued and hand quilted.  25" x 53". Completed in 1998. My original design (by Barbara Dubovsky).  Some fabrics are hand dyed.  Embellishments included ribbon embroidery and thread embroidery.  Each block has a cat.  The Tybee Island lighthouse, Georgia, is a place my husband and I visited on our honeymoon with our red Volkswagen.   The Port Isabel lighthouse was visited many times on Padre Island vacations over the years.  The Presque Isle Lighthouse is dear to a friend who grew up in that area and she provided me with lots of photos to work from.  The girl on the horse is my friend's daughter, Angie.   Angie was a childhood friend of my daughter as well and loved horses.  It's a small wallhanging but took many hours to create.
