All the quilts in the book have a gentle beauty - which the author describes as soft (the opposite of loud) as in loud and soft music.
They speak in a "whisper" - not a "shout" - unlike my bold-colored quilts, like the one below.
Her secret for creating this sense of softness is to use only fabrics with white or light-colored backgrounds.
I'm intrigued. Now I'm anxious to try her technique and make a "soft"-colored quilt...
(But that will have to wait till winter. It's still too nice out to spend my days indoors!)
