YOUR GIFT FIND THE PDF DOWNLOAD OF THIS GIFT AT WWW.GATHERED.HOW/LOVEQUILITINGMAG For many of us quilters, the first step of picking colours is often the trickiest. Our tried-and-tested technique is to whip out a colour wheel, like the one available with this issue of Love Patchwork & Quilting, would you believe! Organised into twelve pure colours (with tints and hues, too) all you need to do is position the little hexie windows over your first fabric, find the closest colour match and spin the dial to reveal all of the fabulous colour combos available. What’s more, we’ve got a complete guide to colour, which will take you through all of the different schemes used by quilters when planning fabric combinations. More experienced stitchers can go off piste and challenge…

What colours are you drawn to? No matter how hard I try, I always find myself reaching for the same shades (coral has the top spot, for anyone wondering).

If there’s one thing that brings us joy in our quilting, it’s colour. Subtle shades, bold combos, soothing ombres, unusual pairings… you name it, we love it. To some, pulling fabrics for an upcoming project comes as naturally as holding a rotary cutter, but many of us find ourselves agonising over what to use for our next make. If you’re in need of a little helping hand, don’t panic, we’re here to help! 1 Just start somewhere The easiest way to start building a colour palette is to start with one shade. Find a colour you want to sew with and work outwards, auditioning hues that complement your starter shade. Paint swatches are great for doing this, and you’ll find that many paint companies release booklets with ideas for pairing…

Surface pattern design, screen printing, patchwork and so much more, your creative pursuits are plentiful! Which craft was your first love though? It’s so hard to say! I think the first craft I really dedicated any time to was probably knitting – I learned to knit at a young age and kept coming back to it as I was growing up. Some of the first products I made to sell at a fair were cushions with one knitted side and one screen printed side. Sadly, I don’t have much time for knitting now, but I do occasionally manage a small project. We love the variety of wonderfully vibrant, modern designs in your pattern library. How would you describe your personal style? Eclectic! I feel like a bit of a pattern…

BEGINNER’S GUIDE TO: TRANSPARENCY QUILTS Adding a transparency effect to your quilt projects can give the illusion of light, shadow and depth. This effect relies on both the value of a colour and having a well-thought-out colour transition. HOW TO ADD A TRANSPARENCY EFFECT TO YOUR QUILT ESSENTIAL TERMINOLOGY ■ Value = The value of a fabric simply refers to the light or darkness of the colour and assumes the base colour/hue stays the same. ■ Hue = The hue of a fabric refers to the colours that appear within the fabric. Think of pinks and you can have a pink with a blue hue or pink with a red hue. The blue hue would be a lavender colour and the red hue would be a crimson colour. Both value…
