Design Concept:
This quilt is part of a series exploring the illusion of
overlapping transparent triangles. The fabrics in the triangles
were designed by Caryl for Benartex and come from her Gradations.
The border fabric is from the Matrix collection by Benartex.
The quilting is a series of curving lines in gold and olive
#30 top-stitching thread from Caryl's Brytes collection
for Superior. The lines emerge from the circular patterns
in the border and flow over the geometric background of
triangles.
Process and Technical Details:
The
quilts in this series 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. |
