Design Concept
The design for this quilt came during a sleepless night
when I got out of bed, and made a series of ten small drawings
to pass the time. One of these drawings was refined to create
the design for this quilt. The final design was enlarged
and drawn full size on a four foot square piece of paper
to create the templates for this quilt.
The full size cartoon was cut up into individual templates,
which were used as patterns for cutting my fabric shapes.
The spiky black and white curves were paper pieced directly
on the paper templates. |
