quiltmaking examples for understanding of making

These four images shows four different ways of basic quilt making and so was shown to me and other students in our first quilt making session in order to broaden our understanding of the making process of quilt making techniques. As all four images consist of a different technique of quilt making, they all have a different effect and include different fabrics and colours. The first two pictures are of hand stitched examples, as shown on the first image hand stitch can be effective as it gives a simpler and 'less is more' kind of effect. On the other hand the use of a simple hand stitch on the second image shows a more tactile effect as the use of the vibrant printed fabric gives the impression that the technique is just a part of the print, and so looks very illusionist. The third image I extremely like ad it contains a variety of colour and print and creates shape and structure by using this patchwork technique. This example has inspired me to do a similar type of patchwork only I will use bright vibrant costume making types of fabric. The last image has inspired me as the colours are very bright and similar to the colours I want to use on my own samples, also the print created by using this technique looks childlike and fun.
