Go beyond "safe" color combinations with simple strategies and tips for creating quilts that sing Â? Color-splashed photos of fabrics, blocks, and quilts bring the color concepts to life, while a reader-friendly style makes the learning easy and fun Editorial Reviews From Library Journal Barnes makes good use of illustrations in this lively, easy-to-understand explanation of the language of color, which emphasizes the importance of color value to quilters.
