Galleries of quilts by Dianne Finnegan
Quilts in three galleries
Dianne’s quilts are made to be displayed on wall or bed. The bold designs and acoustic qualities of the fabrics make them strong wall art and all have sleeves on the back through which a dowel can be slipped for display.
The bed is the most important piece of furniture in a home, its large surface area deserves to be covered by an artwork that is meaningful, a soul cloth that speaks to the owner. The quilts are often designed to run up or across a bed, so that they can be accommodated on single to king.
