RAINBOW GRADATION

I made this top in 2015 and never did quilt it.  It was an exercise in gradation and to study the properties of printed fabric and how they relate to each other.  

I had an afternoon to spare this week, and decided to do a quick quilt on it with my walking foot and a simple wave design.

I love to spend time in my scrap bins; and when I made the top, I came up with 182 different fabrics to gradate.

It's amazing how your eye perceives fabric when different pieces are placed next to each other.

THE STATS:

"Rainbow Gradation", 2018, 24" x 30", Machine Pieced and Quilted, 182 different fabrics.
