SUMMARY- Here's a great education on patterned fabrics. She sets up sample blocks, then gives questions to help you think about what works and what doesn't in the sample. You get a basic lesson in value, a tutorial on the different kinds of prints - really, there is a lot of useful information here, even for someone who isn't a complete novice. I was so pleased to have run across this, and got quite engrossed while reading it. I think you will too.
