I was really inspired by this quilt, made by sewing different sized wedges of fabric together. I reined the technique in a bit to make these somewhat even waves.
To piece the top I cut wedges of random widths but (roughly) the same length then sewed them together in sets of eight. By alternating the orientation of these "blocks" I ended up with the waves.
I completely guessed at the amount of fabric I would need and ended up with the perfect amount for four rows with three blocks left over. I used the leftovers to make this arch on the back.
The label was made using this iLightbox technique and is sewn into the binding.
I was all ready to send this out but now I think I need to share it at the next LAMQG meeting!
***And speaking of the Modern Quilt Guild, Alissa is just wrapping up a fundraiser for Action Kivu, a great organization that supports victims of violence in Eastern Congo. Head over to her blog for more information and to donate. It's a wonderful cause and you'll even be entered into a drawing to win some awesome fabric!***
