Also notice that the black shadow does NOT go all the way to the edges of the floating square, to get the illusion of a shadow, you need to put that little bit of background on the corners.

Love your quilt very neat effect!
Would this work if you had a drk bkg and used white as shadow then a light.
Would you still get this effect?
Any pic using white out there?
Thanks Gale

I love the shadow idea for a tee shirt quilt, they really look like they're floating.

Thanks for the idea and the web sites!!
