Gradations of Value Create a Striking Quilt
| August 30, 2019 | Quilt Ideas
It Will be Great in Any Color Palette!
Gradations of color and careful value placement create an eye-catching quilt reminiscent of mountains. An appliqued bird on a branch is a delightful touch.
This will be a wonderful focal point for a wall or use it as a lap quilt. The size can be increased by adding more blocks, making sure to keep the value gradations intact.
We love the overall design and it’s easy to imagine how wonderful the quilt will be without the bird and in any color theme. Play with color to make your own unique version.
The finished quilt, designed by Maria Umhey, is 55 1/2″ x 55 1/2″.
