I was sure I was going to love this book just from the cover. This is from a series of books on color that will be released throughout 2015. It’s hardcover, a cute size 8” x 8” for starters, and all about red–which is one of my favorite colors. The subtitle caught my eye as well: "A Crayon Box for Quilters". What a great analogy–fabric IS crayons for quilters!

Once you open the book, there is some great information about the color red, color theory on red, and how red works with other colors in combinations. Then it’s on to the projects. The projects are all really amazing and include four quilts, a pillow, and a zipper bag. These projects were created so that the color in them can be easily interchanged. The majority of each project is neutral leaving the pop of color to be easily changed to whatever color suits your needs, allowing more versatility and personalization.
