Customer Reviews

Now comfortable with color

M'liss Rae Hawley's interesting approach to sewing the same block (in size variations if you like, but the same block nonetheless) is an inspired approach to gaining an understanding of color. Yes, she begins as all good artists do, with the standard color wheel. But through her suggestions and methods for re-creating the block, there is the reinforced learning via hands-on results. I can now go back to some of my beautifully pieced quilts, many of my own pattern design, and see why at some point they seemed to "lose" it ... in every case, it was a color choice that simply should not have been included. For some, it's natural; for me, I had to learn it and M'liss Rae Hawley's "Get Creative with Color" is just what I needed. Great product.

A lovely collection of formulas and stories

Beginners seeking a user-friendly quilter's guide will find the vivid colors and unusual designs of M'Liss Rae Hawley's Get Creative! to be inviting. M'Liss provides only 8 projects to serve as a foundation for gathering skills, but each easy project offers important lessons in color and design and offers enough flexibility for beginners to incorporate their own designs and interests. A lovely collection of formulas and stories.

Inspiring

The book is great, I like the format and the clear instructions. Beautiful photos. The price was also great. I like saving money for more fabric.

Get Creative

This book is excellent. I would recommend starting at the beginning and reading through each project. It is set up as a workbook and one chapter leads into the next. A color wheel is a must and really helps one select the fabric for each project. Not all sales persons in the fabric store have the knowledge that you will obtain from this book. Thanks M'liss.
