Peg's Ohio Star |
from Blue Square Quilting |
White is always crisp. It's showy. It gleams a bit.
From Sweet Home Northwest |
White makes things look a big faded, which does the 30's look.
On Etsy |
White is a great accent. These eyes pop because of the white.
White does well with blues, greens, crisp cool colors.
From A Quilt is Nice |
But it also brightens a scrap quilt.
What does cream give us?
From Pots and Pins |
Cream makes a soft look. It's a quieter gentler background.
From Fat Quarter Shop |
It makes an instant antique.
on Etsy |
And it's always a soft companion to beiges and browns.
Peg's Fabric |
Back to Peg's quilt. That very cool green paisley looks white in the quilt. Why? Because it's always in relationship to the other colors and fabrics.
Use white for a
Crisp
Clean
1930's
Blue or
Bright Look
Use Cream for
Antique
Soft
Brown
Homespun or
a frontier look.
And make sure you look at both, with your fabric when your choosing. The colors are always in it, together.
