My shape is a wave shape. I used it horizontally and vertically to give it an abstract landscape scene. The quilt is approximately 19" X 27-1/2". The quilt is mostly monochromatic (black/white), but used a gray piece of fabric to give the illusion of trees or bushes. I used beads along the furrows and the moon is from the underside of a yogurt top. There are some hot crystals for the stars, but I think they are hard to see.

Love this! Graphic and abstract, yet leaving a great sense of realism. The embellishments are a great touch, especially for the close up viewer.
Wow, I love this piece. It is really striking, with lots of value change and texture. The beading in the "ditch" is a nice touch too.
What a great piece. I loved your waves, and the use of black and white is truly striking.
Deborah.... I'm so glad you chose a non-geometric shape. The color blending is great (I love monochromatic color schemes) and the change of orientation from horizontal to vertical gives this piece great movement. Great job!
This is a really nice piece with a lot of movement and texture. The positioning of the strips both vertically and horizontally adds a lot of interest. And of course, I love the bling!
I love how you incorporated the fuze on the fabric for trees or brush. Very calming.
Wonderful, love the colors you have used. A bit realistic and a bit abstract, very interesting work.
Very nice. It looks like a freshly plowed field.

Nice and wonderful choice of fabrics. I like the frayed edges that give a hint of growth.
The use of horizontal and vertical elements is very effective. I also like the beading you used (at least that's what I think it is) in the stripes at the bottom of the quilt. The raw edges are very effective in softening the quilt. It looks great!
It has all been said..I can only agree.. I like the off-white because it adds to the sense of night under the moon, and the crecent shape is just right.
Hi Deborah, there's a wonderful glow to this piece...must be the chiaroscuro effect! Great job!
