InesR Posted November 24, 2018 Report Share Posted November 24, 2018 Quick rail fence for a gift. I stewed and stewed on the dark, really thought it would show the "rails"..., but no, the light won out. The whole color/contrast thing still stumps/surprises me. Stipple and machine binding.

LisaC Posted November 29, 2018 Report Share Posted November 29, 2018 It looks great. Try taking photos of your fabrics lined up and then change the photo to black and white. It will show you how fabrics will blend or contrast. An old tool called a Ruby Beholder works the same. Its a deep red piece of plastic to look through; they were used alot when the watercolor quilts books came out in the 90's.The pics also help find stray blocks that might be turned wrong or in the case of a sampler, too many like colors together.

Allison S. Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Funny how sometimes we don't get what we expect. Often it's even better! I like how the white wins out. Very nice work. InesR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
