Thread: Very little contrast

In the Quilting magazines lately there are quilts with very little contrast, such as all pastel florals. Do you like them?

Some quilts seem more calming without contrast, I guess it is whatever look you are striving for :D:D:D

I prefer more contrast, most of the time.

no I prefer more contrast

I love contrast but sometimes I love the low contrast too. Very calming and relaxing.

I like contrast. When I look at a quilt I see dark v bright.

I agree!! To put all that work into a quilt and then not be able to see the pattern/design seems like such a waste...IMO!! I like sharp contrast in my quilts and things to ''pop'' when viewed but then, that is what makes the world go 'round!!

I like contrast as I think it makes the quilt more interesting. Only my opinion...

And I like the soft pastles.

I tend to like *some contrast* on the other hand a lot of the fabrics sold the last couple years I dont care for the fabric-colors or how they are combined at all... seems like are trying to push *fad* colors onto quilters then next year they will be *out of style* and sell us something else...
