The Castle Door
This month over at Rosie and Linda’s Awfully Big Art Adventure the challenge was to use a key, it could be an old key, a new key or a key that you made. Great challenge, everyone who enters always has an interesting view on the challenge, take a look when you get a chance.
I thought of an image of an old castle door that had been weathered, with a big door knocker, a brass knob and big hinges. I searched Ebay and found this large old key that is used for the hanger here; I also found a few old skeleton keys to add in here and there with my newer keys and heart shaped locks. The base is machine pieced and machine quilted. The charms, keys and buttons are attached with embroidery floss
Enjoy- Chrisetn
This is absolutely wonderful Christen! So many amazing elements lovingly used to create a super work of art!
Fantastic take on the key challenge!!! Love your castle door!
Sorry Christen, my comment should have been here and not the entry below! Duh …

This is very, very special Christen. I can see at least 15 keys there, so you have definitely fulfilled our challenge!!
Thank you for such glorious inspiration.

This is the most amazing, clever and sensitive piece of fabric work.
You must be able to have loads of smarty points that Rosie promised because you’ve got to have used the most keys so far by anyone?
I’m completely stunned by this beautiful piece of work Christen. Oh it’s just wonderful!
