Download or read book Quilt Local written by Heather Jones and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2018-12-15 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The renowned Ohio quilt artist draws on places and objects in her daily life to craft beautiful modern quilts, encouraging your own creative journey. For Heather Jones, inspiration can be anywhere. For her debut book, Quilt Local, she designed a collection of twenty quilts, each inspired by objects and places close to home—country roads, cityscapes, street signs—the landscape of her existence. Then, in a fascinating exercise in color theory and design play, she reworked each one in a second palette to show what a striking difference just a few basic changes can make. Pattern by pattern, Jones takes readers behind the scenes of her process, sharing photographs of her sources of inspiration, sketchbook pages, and the finished quilts. In addition, she offers an accessible lesson in color theory as it applies to quiltmaking. “Jones, founder of the Cincinnati Modern Quilt Guild, translates architecture into quilt patterns that have ‘a strong visual component’ . . . The simplicity of her designs is well suited for beginners, while the modern aesthetic will attract more experienced quilters.” —Publishers Weekly “The author takes quilters inside her studio for a firsthand look at her process for designing and piecing . . . Modern quilters who enjoy a minimalist style are likely familiar with Jones’s work and will appreciate the insights into her process. The presentation is reminiscent of Denyse Schmidt’s Modern Quilts, Traditional Inspiration.” —Library Journal
