Megan M. Ellinger wanted to play with optical blending. She selected six main colors and blended them with 15 shapes of white, gray, and black to create an ombré effect using only the solid colors pieced in 2,160 individual 1/8" stripes. Wait until you see Shade Study.

Shade Study won Second Place, Quilting Challenge, sponsored by American Patchwork & Quilting, at QuiltCon 2020.
