Description:
Stretching the imagination with creative color play lies at the heart of this fun-filled, results-oriented guide to producing more striking quilts. A gallery of over seventy lusciously colored quilts illustrates the author's techniques for choosing colors. Sample fabric arrangements make color concepts easy to understand; color scales show the variations of pure hues, tints, shades, and tones and how they affect the mood of a quilt.While this book has been written from the point of view of a quilter, it is a valuable resource for polymer clay artists, or any craftsperson who wants to know more about color theory, and how to apply it. There are three sections to this book:
* Color concepts
* 24 beautiful colors and their most attractive companions
* Color illusions (depth, luminosity, etc.)
Also of interest, the companion 3-in-1 Color Tool.
