Download or read book Color Continuum Emilychromatic written by Emily Cier and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-11-26 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In quilts, as in life, few things are more important than color. Color evokes a mood, color sets a contrast, color is the spark that can make the everyday - extraordinary. Color Continuum is an exploration of how different approaches to creating a unique palette for a quilt can imbue it with emotion or suggest anything from an everyday scene to a classic painting. No. 03 emilychromatic is the most personal entry in the series. If a quilt is able to tell a story, evoke a mood, or start a conversation, it's because it's the product of the care its creator has put into it: the craft, creativity, artistry, and even whimsy. This is no less the case when a quilt is a collaboration between designer, sewer, quilter, and even fabric manufacturer. As color is one of the more emotional aspects of any visual art, emilychromatic takes the series in a new, less abstract direction: where no. 1 monochromatic explored minimal color palettes and no. 2 polychromatic roamed the entire spectrum, no. 3 emilychromatic is grounded in Emily's own favorite colors.

Book excerpt: At Home with Country celebrates the romance of Cabbages & Roses and shows how Christina Strutt's evocative vintage style is equally at home in city apartments, rural retreats and seaside cottages. From urban high-rises to coastal hideaways, the great manor homes of England to the smallest beach house on the other side of the Atlantic, the beauty of the Cabbages & Roses brand is the gentle but highly visible vintage design. This lavish book embodies all locations—country, city and coast. Chapters encompass Classic Country, Modern City, Island Country and Outdoor Country. Homes that bring together the old and the new, evoking the atmosphere of each season, sit beside city spaces where urban living combines with vintage style—think faded florals and ticking fabrics softening an industrial space, splashes of colour to enliven it and contrasting textures to add interest. Coastal dwellings are fresh, breezy and dreamy—beautifully suited for beach living. The book shows that the country can come to the city, that the city can benefit from coastal settings and that the Cabbages & Roses style is a gentle, unassuming and, above all, beautiful asset to any home as it easily complements all environments.
