Coloring pages easy4/6/2023 ![]() 1 1/8 yard of total yardage or scraps for Color B (Navy) 5/8 yard of total yardage or scraps for Color A (Green) I used one of my custom woven labels to finish it off. There are a few prints that have a peachy accent, so I pulled a binding fabric to highlight that. It's just so easy for me to do and make look decent! It's not anything fancy, but it works for me.įor the binding I wanted a pop of color. I feel like a broken record, but I did my go-to wavy lines for the quilting. You also don't have to stick to two colors! You could go completely rainbow scrappy, you could use a neutral or single fabric in place of the green (color A) and then use many different fabrics for the navy (color B). The great thing about this quilt though is that you could easily cut from scraps, yardage, charm squares, layer cake squares, jelly roll strips or fat quarters. There is only one size strip to cut (hooray!), and I cut mine from a combination of scraps and yardage. ![]() I made it with two colors, using multiple fabrics for each color. The design of this quilt is really simple, but it has a lot of flexibility. I personally feel like navy and chartreuse/lime green work well for any gender! I also happen to have a good selection of both of these colors, which worked out well. I knew from the start that I wanted to make it completely from my stash and that I wanted it to be pretty gender neutral. You’ll get there if you just keep practicing, work on implementing some of these beginner coloring tips, and stretch yourself a little more each time you color.Happy Wednesday! I'm back to share a tutorial for this simple two color baby quilt that I made from my stash last year for one of our friends! First, a little bit about the quilt itself. But when you break it down into steps, it’s achievable even for a beginner. And finally, I used a color palette to help me decide on the blue in the background and butterflies of this photo, because they worked well with the browns and skin towns.Īt first, this coloring page might look a little bit more advanced. ![]() Use a photo of an actual face or tutorial to work out which areas of the face should naturally be darker, and which areas are lighter. The face is probably the hardest part of this picture, but essentially it involves the shading technique, with a little more guidance.Second, I used a pencil on top of the marker to draw lots of fine lines (very lightly!) to create the hair texture. This was a bit of a guessing game, because it was my first time coloring hair! I did this with Copic markers. The hair has been done in 2 steps: First, I choose a dark and light color and picked areas I thought would naturally be darker (areas that are hidden from light) and areas that would stand out.Lots of dots on the hair and background to add a “sparkly” feel. Then slight shading when coloring them in. I used a blue pen to add details in the butterflies wings. ![]()
