'Stripping' an abstract quilt


Today I watch a great show on PBS: Quilting Arts. In this episode, Nancy Ryan shared this amazing technique she calls 'Stripping an Abstract'. I immediately dropped everything to try it out. I am more than pleased with the result so far. I think this took me less than 2 hours. This is just the beginning, it still needs to be quilted and the edge finished. It looks complicated but is deceptively simple. Heat 'n' Bond (this is not an ad, just a convenient link) is the key, and a good rotary cutter, mat and ruler. I was just fumbling around and look what happened! Can't wait to do more!
