Design Concept
This quilt was made especially for the exhibition
Double Vision: Companions and Choices: An Exhibit of Quilts
and Paintings. In this exhibition watercolor artist Rod
Buffington and I each interpreted a design that grew our
of one of my "doodles". My doodles are often filled
with swirls and spirals, branches, and other organic shapes.
The basic line drawing evolved into a repeat
block design in which the basic "doodle" is rotated
and repeated four times and offset slightly, with new connections
drawn in to continue lines from one block to the next. |

The swirling and spiraling shapes were cut
from cotton fabric which had been hand painted in rainbow
colors. The negative spaces were pieced in two gradations
of solid color, from gold to cobalt blue, and gold to deep
purple.
The swirling shapes were quilted in related
colors of thread. A freeform quilting pattern of swirls
and spirals in rainbow variegated top stitching thread fills
the negative spaces.
