Done correctly, [hanging oversized tapestries on your walls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/el-muro) can be a really modern way to display large pieces of art; these decorative geometric quilts are stunningly beautiful and deserve to be showcased where they will be viewed by many.

Meg Callahan is the artist behind these [bold geometric quilts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acre-template). She makes each quilt by hand in Providence, Rhode Island. The thick blankets are carefully and printed with Callahan's own patters. These blankets where originally made to be used as a way to keep warm but they have such an impact that it makes more sense to hang them on your wall.
