The Best Way To Choose Quilting Fabric For Your Project
Quilting fabrics come in various shapes, sizes, and designs, so you have plenty of options when it comes down to your project. As a beginner, choosing the perfect quilting fabric can seem like an impossible task. Fortunately, you can count on this convenient guide to help you pick your fabrics with little trouble.
What Are The Best Quilting Fabrics For Beginners To Work With?
Dedicated quilting fabrics are best for beginners. Of course, there are different quilting options available to beginners. For example, you can purchase your fabrics by the metre, or you can purchase pre-cut fabric squares. The latter tends to be more interesting for beginners.
Quilters who become more proficient at their craft can look into more advanced fabrics. Spotlight's licensed quilting fabrics are a prime example. They are available by the metre, come in intricate designs and therefore enable you to create something utterly amazing.
Whether you are a beginner or an advanced quilter, it is always a good idea to check out the entire range of quilting fabrics at Spotlight. By doing so, you will have an exceptional overview of the available options, ensuring you have the right fabrics for your project.
How Do I Select The Right Colour For Quilting Fabrics?
Colour coordination is everything for a decently constructed quilt. Fortunately, there are some easy ways to look at colour and to select the right fabric colours for your project.
One of the first ways to ensure proper colour selection is by using a colour wheel tool. While you can use the old-fashioned paper colour wheel, you can also find many colour tools online these days. Simply select a colour on the wheel and it will automatically provide you with the matching colours. That way, you are always sure that your colours will complement one another.
If you are uncertain about choosing different colours, there is an easier solution. Instead of choosing different colours, you can choose different shades of the same colour. For example, if you are going for green, you can choose a mixture of dark and light greens. You can also choose different patterns, which will help with the contrast of your quilt. Choosing different shades also create more depth across your quilt, so you do not necessarily have to choose different colours to make it work.
What Is The Best Print Size For Quilting Fabrics?
In addition to colour, you also need to look at print size. Fabrics can have different prints that can create a beautiful contrast on a quilt, but choosing those prints requires careful consideration. After all, choosing prints that are too big may ruin a quilt in a heartbeat. While this does not mean you cannot use larger prints, you just have to set them off with some smaller prints.
Quilters will use fabrics with a smaller print to blend everything together. They are also perfect for beginners, as they draw the attention to the fabric more than to the stitching. For beginners, this is a really good technique to use.
If you have your heart set on a bigger and more pronounced print, then be sure to look at solid colours as well. Solid colours provide you with the opportunity to create a contrast between bigger prints, without losing the overall design of the quilt. Of course, also make sure that your solid colours complement your prints.
Once you become more proficient, you can start experimenting with textures too. For example, if you do not like to use too many different colours in a quilt, you can use textures to create the contrast you are looking for. Of course, we only recommend this for more advanced quilters, as working with different textures can be a little more challenging.
