5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book on color usage and combinations in quilts!, October 7, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Classic American Quilt Collection: Creative Ideas for Color and Fabric (Rodale Quilt Book) (Hardcover)

I originally stumbled across this gem in my local library. The text is straightforward and easy to understand, with plenty of examples to demonstrate the principles of color covered in the book. I was impressed that the author not only included pictures of successful color combinations, but also a few examples of quilts that didn't turn out very well because of color selection or placement. The library made me give their copy back---so I figured it was worth the investment to add it to my quilting library! Definitely one I will refer to again and again.
