Editorial Review:
• Color theory and composition—explained in clear, understandable quilters' language
Simple exercises—from no-sew step-by-step using the fabrics quilters love, to a color wheel built from scraps, to the easy "Nine Patches" approach to color and composition—show exactly how to understand design principles and incorporate them into the craft of quilting. A gallery of beautiful quilts follows each exercise and shows how beginners and professionals use color and composition techniques to create magic. Great for traditional and art quilters, this book makes quilters' talent shine.

Rating: - Wow!
Learn some new ways iof looking at color ar expand what you think you know. Lovely ideas and great things to put into use.
Rating: - Good color and composition course for quilters
I took a basic color and design class at a community college about a decade ago. We worked through similiar exercises to those in this book, but with paper, not with fabric as in this book. If you have wanted to take a basic color and design class at a college but don't have the time or resources, this is an excellent book. The only thing I like better about the college class is that you have a real person demanding your homework!
Rating: - Improve your skills
If you hated homework you won't like this book, but if you are willing to follow the instructions and trust the authors to lead you to new skills, you will come away from the lessons in this book with a better understanding of drawing and coloring ways to add to your personal style of making art quilts. I will do this and look forward to the experience!
