Thanks! It's about 8x10" -- made for a show that's coming up soon at Arlington Center for the Arts. The theme of the show is just small works of art, anything smaller than 12".
I love blues and golds together (and reds and oranges can come along for the ride). The skyscrapers-at-night scene sounds beautiful. Reminds me of a favorite Magritte painting which I often think of at dusk: http://www.menil.org/images/surr2_magritte-V616_000.jpg
This little quilt is sort of a question, asking myself whether the lights and darks of the progression will produce an optical illusion. I expected that the yellows would appear larger than the reds, making the horizontal stripes look wider at one end than the other... and it does work, but only really in thumbnail form:
