Koi - patio wall hanging
It's not really a quilt and it doesn't even have much piecing, but I like it. It's a koi fish panel I found a couple years ago at a quilt show. I always planned to use it as the center of a bed quilt but DH Jim recently asked me if he could hang one of my quilts in the patio. In the PATIO?!? In FLORIDA?!? Mold, mildew, bugs and rain. It's in a covered area but a really strong wind can get rain all the way to the back wall. So, no, I didn't want to put a regular quilt out there but I was pleased he asked anyway. It inspired me to do something simple with the koi panel. It's bright and 'watery' - just right for this area by the pool.
I used multicolored thread around the leaves and fish and did some trapunto stuffing on the koi and the sun.
Do you have any quilts hanging in outside areas? Any special treatment to keep them from getting yucky? I'm thinking of using some Scotchguard.

There's just one ladybug bead right now although I plan to add more beads later.
