Description:
Playing with Blocks features, you guessed it, the tumbling block as its central design concept. To create the 3-Dimensional effect of the blocks falling down the quilt, Marci chose appropriate light, medium, and dark fabrics so that each block would stand out. What is maybe more impressive than the illusionary element of Marci's quilt, is the fact that she created the quilt top in six hours by strip piecing it.
