Fabric of the WeekThis week's fabric news is all about gradients and we're starting with the fabric if the week. Take A Hike was inspired by the colors we saw on a recent hiking trip on the Blue Ridge Parkway. This week it's on sale 20% off. New GradientI've been wanting to make an all-green gradient but there are a lot of greens to choose from! I wanted something bright but not too close to crayon green. All the other greens are envious that I chose this colorway. It's exactly the look I was going for! Envy would be great as a meadow component of an art quilt and would provide a wonderful range of greens for applique leaves. Helios is back in stock!Finally the ever-popular Helios Gradient is back! This is most often used as sunrise/sunset background for art quilts.

I love the new green gradient. It makes me think of the Emerald City in the musical Wicked. "One Short Day in the Emerald City" was performed at a venue I attended and this is the color I remember. Weird how our minds work, isn't it? Comments are closed.
