"DNA Wrap"

Number 45 in this series uses 1.5", 2" and 2.5" strips.  I incorporated my recent experience with bargello quilts in trying to get a 3D look (the wave) in it.

Layout of this one was tricky   I tried not to get similar colors too close together, but sometimes, even though I always try...I still don't manage to "see everything" until it is all sewn together!

Enjoy!

I like that first one, but decided that meatballs are usually sitting in a tomato sauce....so here's this one:
