March Meeting Reminder

Modern String Challenge -  "String Theory" is due. Prizes will be determined by viewers choice.

Modern Elements - Minimalism and Bright Graphic color palette will be presented by Liz Thanel and Phyllis Higley.

Minimalism

•   Often, the more negative space a quilt has, the more minimal it becomes.

Distilling down the most basic parts of quilt construction to their fundamental aspects.

Bright & Graphic Color Palette 

•   The combination of colors and where they are placed can modify traditional designs into modern quilts.

•   Color is less important if the other modern quilting design elements are strong.

•   Solid colors appear more Modern as they create crisp lines of contrast.
