Ascend by Christine Muccianti

Christine Muccianti created an original modern quilt by placing triangles that resemble arrowheads. The solid color shading lends a 3D effect to the quilt.  She says, "This design allowed me to play with light and movement. I chose rich colors that make the shapes pop off the background.  while each block individually has upward motion, the arrangement of the orange accent blocks adds left-to-right motion."
