One reason I've been learning photography is so I can document my work better, but with something like this (having so much black, and not being traditional dimensions), it's hard to get an accurate picture.
Thank you! I'd been wanting to do a stack-n-whack, and this was a wedding gift for a friend who loves mandalas (and her charming husband), so it seemed like the natural choice... until they requested the limited color palatte. :) I'd been told that you have to use busy fabric with a lot of colors for stack-n-whack, but it turns out that busy fabric with only a few colors also works.
Piecing it was actually surprisingly fun; the more frustrating part was all the quilting I had to do to make all the wrinkles lie flat. The back of the quilt is covered with little black and white line-drawing mandalas.
