The Quilt Maniac's Playbook / Fuel for the Quilt Imagination [Paperback] Review

The Quilt Maniac's Playbook / Fuel for the Quilt Imagination [Paperback]The Quilt Maniac's Playbook, Fuel for the Quilt Imagination by Nicole Chambers not just another quilting book.
Before reading the author's biographical information, it was clear that this book was written by a polished, professional writer with an imaginative use of language that makes her book a pleasure to read. Glancing at the first few color plates of her quilts, it is just as obvious that she is a meticulous quilter with a well-developed flair for color and design. All but three of the striking quilts in the chapter, Quilt Gallery, are designed and made by Nicole herself-a testament of her dedication to her own book.
Color is Only the Beginning presents thorough, easy to understand color fundamentals. Other teachers of color and design like me will find it refreshing in its approach. "Value is the Big Kahuna, the Big Cheese, the Big Daddy when it comes to color and design," the author declares. "How you use value will have a significant effect on how the colors will interact with one another.""...it's not surprising to find that contrast and unity are the central components of good design and the heart and soul of making good color choices," Nicole adds then proceeds to explain and illustrate these positions.
