Impressionist Palette

Capture the beauty of nature’s landscapes with quilts styled after Impressionist paintings.

Impressionist Palette, the follow-up to Gai Perry's highly successful Impressionist Quilts, expands your horizons for interpreting nature's landscapes into pictorial quilts with an Impressionist flair. Gai's original technique—which places squares on point—softens fabric edges and gently blends color, furthering the illusion of viewing a real painting.

Learn how to select the right additions to your fabric palette and embellish your Impressionist Landscape quilt with patch applique and highlight painting. Find your personal palette using Gai's color enrichment concept. Instructions for six new projects are included, as well as beautiful photographs showcasing the work of Gai and her students.

The versatile technique and design principles are simple enough for beginners to understand, while also presenting continuing challenges for experienced quiltmakers.
