Design
Concept
This is one of a series of quilts in which three dimensional, constructed tucks are pieced into a patterned background. The background fabric was painted with fiber reactive dyes in a free form, abstract design.
Each of the 1/2" "tucks" was constructed from two different fabrics and the right and left sides have different hand-dyed gradations of color. The use of color gradations, and the twisting of the tucks from side to side, create the illusion of movement and light across the surface of the quilt.
