Positive/Negative was such a great teaching experience for me today -- it always humbles me how a quilter can take a teacher's ideas and run with them, making something uniquely their own.
Joanne took both workshops and was dressed both days in purple and orange -- are you surprised?
She chose this lurid orange fabric -- I can't think of another word for it -- as her "shadow" fabric and it worked great!
Had to show you this fabric!
Ellen also used orange fabrics, but she used a print to shadow through....
Couldn't decide which picture of the block was better, so posted both.
Debbie used a green color scheme similar to my original sample.
Sharon did something totally original -- she cut her sashings from already pieced fabrics .....
...and in the fabric showing through, as well.
Gretchen made her pieced quilt top in the green and white combo I used......
..but the black and white polka dot as her shadow fabric was the best!!!
Norma had these beautiful dark blue sashing with the great complementary print....
Carla also had a green and white scheme, although the bright colored stripe in the sashing was a very good contrast.....
She also had a print rather than a solid as her shadow fabric.
I liked Kris' soft color scheme of pink and green; she used a darker green to shadow through her white.
Carol chose a blue-on-blue colorway with a bright yellow print peeking through the white.
All of the fabric choices today gave me some really great ideas for some samples I need to make in the future!
