Combine that with some seriously dreary days with little to no sun around here, and my photography is looking pretty poor lately. I think Lee's right about using a gray - even Kona medium gray would probably be nice. Good luck! :)Elizabeth Dacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08411845598348993307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851031878127511854.post-84264700275888747092011-01-04T21:22:14.431-08:002011-01-04T21:22:14.431-08:00The white is looking great!

Kristie from 'The Decorologist' was talking yesterday about not using a flash inside as it deadens the photo...I have found..find whatever window is lightest with the light behind you and take a picture. Put a white background behind you're subject and you can always use a backlight and some brightness etc in editing it! Just a few tips I have found useful.Naturally Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15999271127735997770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851031878127511854.post-76223718501017533972011-01-04T20:55:40.054-08:002011-01-04T20:55:40.054-08:00I love the way your FFA2 quilt is coming out.

If you are coming to Sewing Saturday this weekend, I'll bring my Kona Color Card and you can compare your fabric to choose the best color for the sashing.Katihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09609256565071955410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851031878127511854.post-90867803399223660722011-01-04T20:46:50.590-08:002011-01-04T20:46:50.590-08:00Oh wow, I love YOUR Far Far Away quilt!

Kitchen Windows is a fabulous pattern for this fabric.<br /><br />FYI, Kona Stone is definitely a warm beige-ish gray - it may not look that way in my crummy photos (bad winter light here too!), but it's almost a taupe. Since you're using the gray FFA prints, you might want to consider more of a straight gray. Maybe Kona Coal or Ash. I think that would look AMAZING.Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18310325294852658619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851031878127511854.post-47659406093285143792011-01-04T19:57:02.747-08:002011-01-04T19:57:02.747-08:00The quilt looks amazing!

When I'm feeling blah about images I always remember what my hero Cliff Mautner says about shooting weddings on rainy days: "just live to fight another day." We'll get through the blah winter light and then start rockin' it come summer! :DTracihttp://www.realphotography.com/tracinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851031878127511854.post-10627160027288478372011-01-04T19:20:22.433-08:002011-01-04T19:20:22.433-08:00The first block, which I love, love, LOVE, looks l...The first block, which I love, love, LOVE, looks like a quilt from my childhood, when you used scraps of fabric left over from sewing clothes. I remember how fun it was to look at my grandmother's quilts and figure out from which piece of clothing scraps the quilt piece was made. It was so much fun.Denisenoreply@blogger.com
