Large geometric shapes join blocks in bold colors in this abstract art quilt composition. Large blocks of red, pink, blue, orange, green, brown, and yellow intersect and overlap, creating a dynamic and balanced arrangement. The textured surface adds depth, while the placement of shapes generates movement across the quilt. The use of contrasting colors emphasizes the distinct forms, producing a lively and engaging piece.

After hand cutting pieces of solid colored fabric, designing the composition, and sewing the pieces together I layered the quilt top with cotton batting and stitched many closely-spaced lines through the layers to add texture. This is called matchstick quilting.

I finished it with a sewn facing giving the quilt frameless straight edges. On the back of the quilt I sewed a fabric sleeve which holds a wooden slat (Included). The slat has a small eyebolt at each end so you can hang the quilt on the wall with two nails. The slat is slightly narrower than the quilt so the slat and nails won’t be visible when the quilt is hung on the wall.
