almost all plain fabrics/colours, occasional patterned fabric.
in the Gwen Marston book, Abstract Quilts in Solids, that the first line is something like "This is a quilt book for grownups." I love that line, because she goes on to explain that the book does not have patterns, that it is for inspiration and that most people have simple quilt directions in a myriad of other books. Thank you, Gwen Marston!
With my birthday money from RBL, I bought [b:Mary Schafer American Quilt Maker|1143787|Mary Schafer, American Quilt Maker|Gwen Marston|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1181377928s/1143787.jpg|1131231] by [a:Gwen Marston|63062|Gwen Marston|http://www.goodreads.com/images/nophoto/nophoto-U-50x66.jpg][. I have a number of Marston’s books and really enjoyed the workshop on book:Libertated Quiltmaking] I took from her a few years ago. The quilt I made as a result of the techniques I learned in the class can be seen on Artquiltmaker.com. The Mary Schafer book has nothing to do with Liberated Quiltmaking, however. It is a history type quilt book depicting the work and collections of Mary Schafer. The quilts are classic in style, though many of them have a twist, such as Grandmother’s Pride, 1980, pg. 111.

As with her other books, she teaches you how to improve as an artist and a quilter. the book is loaded with color photos of her current work. Great book for all artists.
