Colour Confident Stitching: How to Create Beautiful Colour Palettes

Choosing colours for a crafting project can be daunting and creating colour palettes is a design task in itself but textile designer Karen Barbé’s explanations makes it a fun and enjoyable part of the process.

Whether you are a beginner or more experienced, any stitching project can be enhanced by a well-chosen color palette.

This book makes creating color palettes a fun and enjoyable part of the design process. It is divided into three parts: Understanding Colour; Feeling Colour and Stitching with Colour. The first two sections guide the reader through color theory as well as choosing color more instinctively.

The five projects that are included will encourage the reader to explore color and build confidence through exercise and experiment. Inspirational photographs are accompanied by stitching illustrations and step-by-step photographs for the color choosing process as well as stitching projects.
