This is one of a series of quilts that combine zigzags and curved shapes, in this case, thick and thin waves and graduated orbs. I turned my line drawing into separate shapes and graduated the colors and values within each shape. Where the shapes crossed, I used different colors, which makes every shape appear transparent. The quilting was done with many different thread colors and patterns. The binding strips were designed especially for this piece. The backing fabric is from my Glacier Park collection for Benartex. This is a miniature version, in slightly different colors, of my much larger quilt Through Thick & Thin #1.
