Color Transparency Quilting with Erika Mulvenna - The Color Series

This class is part of the four-part virtual Color Series. This class may be purchased à la carte at $95 or as part of a four-part package for a discounted price of $240.

Transparency quilts create the illusion of overlapping shapes blending into one another with patchwork pieces of colored fabrics. Break down the basics of forming the transparency illusion using value (light/dark) and hue (related colors) with hands-on experiments and class discussion. Participants will explore each concept with colored paper and fabric kits to create two 12” x 12” transparency illusion quilt blocks. Kits are included with the purchase of this class.
