I know, sounds kind of desperate, doesn't it? Here's my thinking: if anything can be inspiration, then on occasion I have to choose something really odd. Doorknobs feel odd. We'll see how that goes in a second.
Surely some of these more off-the-wall (yes, pun intended) door knockers and doorknobs can inspire a quilt or two. I was thinking of the regular, ordinary, not-so-special doorknobs that ordinary people (like myself) have in our homes. If, however, you really like the odd and endearing, check out Laura Beth Love's "door knobs knockers and latches" board. Really, I want to just show you all 85 of her pins, but I have other work to do.
I'm supposed to be showing you some quilts inspired by doorknobs. Surprise, I have something. I'm disappointed, however, because the best I can do are these little quilts that hang on a door knob. There are lots of these, but well...
They aren't even quilted but they could be! Maybe that's the inspiration. You could make a few for the doors in your house but quilt them.
I'm not sure just what to consider this post: I don't feel like it's a win, but I do like the little door hangers and can see that they would be just as cute made and quilted in cotton.
What would you consider this post? A win (for finding some darling little sewn items)? Or a loss (for not finding any quilts)?
