Help Please. Do you think there is enough contrast?
1 Attachment(s)
I am starting a labyrinth walk quilt and am just not sure about the fabrics.
I thought there was enough contrast but can't decide if it will be OK or not as it grows. Here is the 1st set of blocks. Any thoughts out there? |
Wow. I have just started and used purple shades between black and white and contrast was my problem as well.
They look great. |
That looks great! Love the colors. Who is that pattern by?
|
I think they look great! Can't wait to see the finished project.
|
Looks like enough contrast to me.
|
Looks good!
|
works well for me, this pattern is on the bucket list too along with soooooo many others, can't wait to see it finished
|
works in the picture.
|
I think it works out great!
|
The pattern was in Quilt Magazine designed by Chris Florence & Emily Sirkin. I'm not sure what month my SIL sent it to me because she knew i wanted to do one of these. So far I can't believe how simple it has been (be sure to label pieces as you cut) I am excited can't wait to get it done but I have some other projects going that have to get done so I am working on it in between. I'll post pictures as I go.

I think there is a lot of contrast. Don't worry! You did very well!!!
|
I think there is plenty of contrast. Looking great!
|
I think it will be wonderful! Mine is at the LAQ now and I can't wait to get it back http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...e-t219581.html
I learned a lot about getting the depth correct with this cube quilt I did - http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...r-t221088.html and threw away many a cube that just did not pop! Please post when done and be sure to download the corrections. I cut as I went along and the second block was much harder for me! Good luck! |
Labyrinth Walk The pattern was in Quilt Magazine April/ may 2012 I think you can get a free down lode of the pattern now.
Yours looks great can't what to see it finished I did mine in blues http://www.quiltingboard.com/attachm...2-dsc_2537.jpg |
I think there is enough....and cant wait to see the finished product!!
|
looks like enough contrast to me, looks great cant wait to see more
|
Looks great to me! Keep showing us progress.
And Mary Quilting, yours is beautiful. Thanks for the link too. |
Apparently there were mistakes in the magazine pattern. I cannot find the corrections page on the Quilt mag website, nor can I find a free download of the pattern there. Thought I heard the pattern was so popular the designer is coming out with a printed pattern for it to sell.
Edit: I searched the website in a different way and DID find the correction sheet for this pattern. Here is a link to the PDF: http://www.quiltmag.com/resources/la...rn-correction/ The corrections are in red. |
Yours looks great Mary!
|
Quilt Magazine ran out but I found a post from June 10, 2013 that the pattern will be ready soon! http://theguiltyquilters.blogspot.com/
|
Can you photocopy the block? That will show you in black and white how the contrast shows. I think it's good because you have white and black at each end of the spectrum and a light and medium grey in between.
|
It is Perfect!
|
It looks great to me.
|
I think the colors you chose work well together...very nice.
|
I think it is great. Is this pattern as difficult as it looks?
|
Yes I do.........

Oh, I think the book is about walking an actual labyrinth. It is a form of meditation and called the labyrinth walk.
|
My first word out of my mouth, before I scrolled down at all was, "WOW", in awe. I see the first person to respond to this thread said the same thing. Does that give you the answer you needed?
|
Looks great! Can't wait to see the finished product!
|
There is plenty of contrast to my eye. You have a light, medium and dark...........can't ask for a more workable combination. It looks really nice and I hope you will post the finished picture!

Without a doubt, you can see the depth in this block completly
|
looks great to me
|
Looks good to me.

Nope-- don't change any thing. My MIL done this pattern in greys and black also. She went and changed the black to red and the only one that liked it was her cat.She went and re-bought her fabrics and stuck to the original plan. Her quilt was auctioned off and brought in a whopping $500 for the Women and Children's Shelter
|
Very effective contrast! I love this illusion!
|
I think it is stunning. The contrast is just right. Keep going
|
I'd say you're off to a great start. Very nice.
|
Really great! Love it and don't change the colors.
