jill here.... Sometimes color combinations inspire translation. While shopping with my daughter in Nordstroms, I was exposed to not only styles I've grown out of but new color combinations ! I'm so excited to see a resurgence of navy. With a pop of color, it's spectacular.

Our pattern "Flatbread" creates the illusion of transparency. The medium light citron intersects (or overlaps) with the medium grey to form a third, darker value navy. The snow background contrasts for a vary graphic interpretation. |
 |
Four colors (and values) are perfect for Flatbread.
From Kona cotton solids I chose :
Zucchini (I will call it citron),
Windsor (I will call it navy),
Medium grey and Snow. |
The range of values is good but the light, dark and dull really sets off the citron. The added bonus for graphic display is that they are all solids.
 |
Another bonus is the solids display the quilting pattern, which gives a very flat fabric depth and interest. April added her touch with a pantograph called "Modern Squares". |

| At rest in all this heat! |
Stay cool. 'Till next Tuesday...
