Whether you are drawn to vivid multicolor quilt patterns, or a more subtle tonal look is your preference, it all starts with understanding color theory and fabric placement.
Quilting expert, thread and fabric designer, and quilting educator Sarah Thomas goes all in with this must-have quilting guide, offering practical, easy-to-follow instructions. Rainbow Quilt Color Method isn't just a collection of 15 beautiful quilts, it's a full course on how to confidently choose fabric for multi-color and monotone designs!
Along with a color wheel overview, Sarah shares her approach for selecting a harmonious palette that achieves design strength through color placement in rainbow-inspired quilts. Sarah's approach takes you step-by-step through the process, starting with how colors relate to each other, what tools and materials you need, and a variety of quilting techniques. She then explains how she uses saturation and color value to make the same quilt in an alternate colorway. For example, her rainbow version of her Twinkle pattern takes on a patriotic feel when made with red, white, and blue!
