Hibiscus Wallhanging.

Designed by Mary Metcalf

Pattern is usually $18.00, now just $10.00.

Wall hanging size: .68m x .89m (26¾” x 35”)

A quilted wall hanging featuring large hibiscus and using just two templates.

Hibiscus_cu.jpg The two templates are printed with the pattern.  Just glue to thick cardboard and use safely with your rotary cutter.  The flowers and the borders are made from the same two templates just coloured differently. The five petal shape of the hibiscus blossom is couched with decorative thread over the centre four triangles and I also give you the freehand quilt pattern that I used to define the leaves in the border.

hibiscus_flower_1.jpg I have a wonderful hibiscus bush in my front garden that has these massive red blooms. The contrast of these blooms with the dark green leaves was just too good an opportunity to miss so I had to make a quilt.

In fact I found the two piece block so easy I remade the quilt and this time used different size blocks but it is based on the same block format. Here’s a picture of this large quilt that I designed on Electric Quilt.

Interesting fact:
The native Australian hibiscus flower is a national emblem of the Stolen Generation of Indigenous peoples in Australia. This flower was adopted because it is found widely across Australia and it is a survivor. Its colour denotes compassion and spiritual healing.
