I’m Helene Knott, and for over 50 years I’ve been quilting, teaching, and traveling—best known for my landscape quilts. In this video I walk you through my fabric-selection process step by step: starting with the sky to set the mood, then choosing water that reflects it, and building background → middle ground → foreground, so textures read naturally. I show how I “cast” fabrics with a casting call and screen test, compare sunrise vs. sunset palettes, and explain horizon contrast, value shifts, and orientation tricks (like preserving printed moons and other “fabric gift horses”).
You’ll see me audition stacks for sky, water, distant hills, and trees—swapping “understudy” prints until the chemistry clicks. We’ll use a quick mini-landscape pattern so you can experiment without fear, and I’ll show why great landscape fabrics often aren’t labeled as such. If this helps, please like, subscribe, and share with a quilting friend—and tell me in the comments which palette (dawn pastels or fiery sunsets) you’d pick for your next seascape.
