As mentioned in my last post, I didn’t want to cut this piece down to the required size of 16″ x 16″. Instead I decided to add more curvy strips to make it 32″ x 16″ (the other size option for this exhibition).
I kept the center portion intact as I really like how those fabrics look together. I added 3 wider curves to each side. Then I fused 1/4″ black bias tape between the curves. And I think I’ve settled on a title for it: ‘Curves Gone Wild’.
The next step is to quilt it. I’ll start by quilting with black thread through each side of each strip of bias tape. Then I’ll quilt each coloured section, probably with matching thread.
Check back in a few days, and see how it’s going.
