Design Concept
This quilt is part of a series of quilts, exploring the
illusion of overlapping transparent triangles. The triangles
were pieced from strips of hand dyed fabrics arranged in
gradations. The quilting was done with variagated cotton
top stitching thread. In contrast to the geometry of the
pieced quilt top, is done in swirling, free-motion, organic
patterns.
This quilt was made as a project chapter in a 1996 Rodale
book about machine quilting (" EASY MACHINE QUILTING,
1996, Rodale Books pp. 170-178). The complete instructions
for making it are in that book. |
