Here is my entry for the current Curated Quilts mini challenge. The theme is Abstract.
The color palette for the mini quilt challenge is teal, deep grey blue, bright yellow-green, soft grey, periwinkle, and flamingo pink. The instructions are to use flow as inspiration for the abstract mini quilt design.
The word flow took me to this sketch of water flowing. The colors I chose to use are bright yellow-green and teal. My original plan was to incorporate bias tape in my design, but I liked the look of the fabrics alone, so I pieced my curves and put the bias tape back in the cupboard.
I quilted my mini with a selection of teal and chartreuse threads, flowing from light in the center to dark at the edges..
Here is my finished piece ‘Aqua Flow‘. It is 12 x 12 inches.

Terry – I love all of your artwork – and so wish I had collected more years ago – AQUA FLOW is a new favourite of mine for sure!!
I admire your ability to work to themes; I’ve often found that a real challenge. This piece depicts ‘flow’ very well — and I agree with your decision to put the bias binding away. 🙂
