This is one of a series of quilts, exploring the illusion
of overlapping transparent triangles. The triangles were
made from strips of hand dyed fabric, dyed in gradations.
Each triangle was pieced separately and then cut into horizontal
strips. The strips of the two triangles were alternated
when they were sewn back together. This creates the illusion
of more than one triangle occupying the same space. A narrow
border of black surrounds the center triangles, followed
by a wider border of dye painted fabric in rainbow colors.
A binding of solid black surrounds the composition. In contrast
to the geometry of the pieced design, the quilting was done
in a freeform, swirling, organic design.
