2nd Quarter Challenge - Monochromatic

2nd Quarter Challenge 

Monochromatic

     Due June 7th - Any size of completed quilt using only 1 color. This will be an exercise in using value, texture, shape and composition. You may add 1 neutral but it must be less than 10% of your entire quilt. If you are struggling with using different shades of the same color, using an ombre fabric is very helpful!

      

      

There will be a special category for Monochromatic Quilts in our Summer Exhibtion!!!

Examples of Neutral colors include beige, taupe, gray, cream, brown, black & white.  While neutral colors are not on the color wheel, they complement primary and secondary colors.

Here are two examples of a quilt using purples fabrics. The quilt on the left is not monochromatic because the white added is more than 10% of the quilt. The quilt on the right is monochromatic.
