Playing with color Value: During this lecture we will talk about many different topics related to color, especially about what value is and why it is so important when is time to choose and pick your fabrics for a new project. I will show you through different examples how you can create movement and sequences using color value to design your quilts, creating interest, contrast and fluidity.

Then, on April 30th, join Carolina for a workshop on Organic Shapes.
