The quilting in the center gives a 3-D dome-like effect to the piece as well as spinning action caused by the angled placement of the quilting design that surrounds the pebbles. Again, your judicious use of quilting in some areas and not in others creates interest. High marks again, probably an 8. Have you ever considered using a faced finish technique rather than a binding to finish your more contemporary quilts?
