Recently I posted about some blocks I've drafted in Electric Quilt. I promised to share some of the quilts I'm playing around with, and here is the first one.
I used this block:
I set up a simple horizontal grid quilt first.
Then I started playing with colors. What if one direction of the "waves" are darker than the other?
What if we increase the contrast?
Okay. I just have to get some purple in there!
What about alternating the lights and darks?
Hmmm. Interesting, but I've lost that wave.
Let's combine this block with something else . . . say a Barrister's block.
Oh my, this is soooo much fun! And it is only the beginning! I've got more ideas to try out.

I DO like the one where the wave is lost!
Up to that point I was thinking that the wave was the most interesting part of the design!
I guess there are two directions to explore with this design!
