I promised a collage of the beginning through the final sewn quilt top for this colorwash. I added one more column on the left edge when I decided that edge wasn't quite dark enough. It is in the last 2 photos.
I see you used two design walls for this quilt, for some reason, I thought it was smaller. Thanks for showing us how you added each color, sure turned out great.
I bet it would be really fun to take a whole lot of photos during your work on a quilt like this and make them into a film. So the quilt would come together in a couple of minutes of film, via still shots put together. I can't remember what that's called, but have seen it done with a plant or a child growing, for example. I'm not suggesting you do it, it's the kind of thing a photographer or filmmaker is more likely to do, I guess. But it's fun to watch. And your lovely collage put me in the mind of those types of films.

Thanks, this is a great visual "how to."
I agree with Gene Black. I love the "peek" into the design process. This is very helpful as I attempt colorwash. Thank you.
It looks like an unfolding, moving rainbow!
beautiful to see it put together like this.
Excellent teaching tool !

It's fantastic to see the stages and watch it all develop into the wonder that it becomes.
Thank you so much for sharing.
