The watercolor quilt is a wall hanging made from one large block that uses curved piecing to create the illusion of transparency from overlapping circles. The class will cover my process for building a fabric gradation and tips and tricks for stress free curved piecing. Take the guesswork out of color selection by using one of the published color gradations inside the pattern! The watercolor quilt finishes at 32 by 32 inches.
