Fascinating Color Concepts
In writing this book, Joen Wolfrom writes that her "mission was to present simple, yet fascinating color
concepts with easy instructions and tantalizing colors".
Although written for quilters, the color concepts learned can be valuable for use in other
crafts and needlework.
Learn what color combinations group together most beautifully for stunning designs. Gorgeous scenes
of color in nature illustrate the combining of colors, further illustrated by intriquing quilt block
patterns and fabric swatch designs.
In this book, you can also learn how to use color to:
create the illusion of
depth
luminosity (a glowing light source effect)
luster (a reflection)
shadows
transparency (seeing through part of the design to a different design underneath)
A section of pages is filled with imaginative, colorful quilts, enjoyable to browse through
and likely to leave you feeling inspired.
This book is a valuable learning tool and continual reference source for designers as well as for anyone who
enjoys straying from the suggested colors to experiment with alternate color schemes in craft or
needlework projects that they are working on.
