More Black & White: Texture Samplers


 The next issue of Julie B Booth Surface Design News is coming out tomorrow. Usually, it's an early morning release, but will more likely be an early afternoon release tomorrow. This gives those of you interested in signing up a bit more time!

Spaghetti block print

The focus this month is on kitchen textures, which I'm calling Textures Time Three. You will learn how to make two different types of print blocks and then learn some different ways to print those blocks. I created a number of samplers before moving on to do some color fabrics (which you can see in the newsletter).

I hope you will consider signing up. It's easy. Just add your email to the sign up in the right hand column of this blog. You can also read the past issues by clicking on the Past Newsletter Issues under the Newsletter Archives.

I'm off to work. Sunday could be interesting here in the Mid-Atlantic. Frankenstorm is coming!

    1. Hi Angela- So happy to hear that you signed up. I've really been enjoying designing a project (process) each month with the focus on the kitchen. Hope you enjoy reading it.

    1. Thank you so much Ersi! It was fun to lay them all out on the floor and see what I'd accomplished. I think I will do more black and white, even though I'm really a "color" girl!

  3. I have a fondness for basic black and white. Love these! Are they fat quarters also? Can I coax you to go bigger?

    1. Hi there- Your comment was hidden again and I just found it... These were made for the Newsletter where I'm keeping things on the small side as they are samples. I'm thinking that I might make up some more bundles for the Gallery..though maybe this size (small)for sales. I could see going bigger for myself. Though if I go bigger, I would want the images to be bigger.

    1. Thank you Susan. I've been enjoying the graphic quality of all that black and white. A bit of a change for me. Appreciate your comments, as always!
