This quilt is part of a series exploring the illusion of overlapping transparent triangles. It is based on the 2010 update of Caryl's Illusion pattern. All of the fabrics in this quilt were designed by Caryl for Benartex and come from her "Gradations" and "Multi-Tye-Dye" collections. The quilting is all free-motion, beginning with two long feathered plumes in irridescent green thread. The remainder of the quilting was done freehand in Caryl's signature style.

Process and Technical Details:

To make the quilts in this series, I start with two square blocks with equilateral triangles. Square A has a dark triangle on a light background and Square B has a light triangle on a dark background. The squares are sliced into strips and reassembled with alternating strips from Square A and Square B.
