Chalk Effects

The Chalk Effects collection by Elise K for Contempo isn't exactly the opposite of White Out, but it provides a great contrast to it! These tonals feature a variety of values, so they can be used in a quilt on their own or can be added to brights and patterned prints for nice, subtle background prints. 

All the texture and fun of a chalkboard look without the chalky mess! 

Here are a few of the prints:

Sgraffito: Pen & Ink Art

Sgraffito is an Italian term that means a form of decoration made by scratching through a surface to reveal a lower layer of a contrasting color, typically done in plaster or stucco on walls, or in slip on ceramics before firing. Sgraffito is also the name of a new fabric line from Contempo Studio by Elise K featuring florals, paisleys, leaves, geometrics, and textures. These pen-and-ink-style designs, done in black and ivory with brown, gray, and taupe accents, create a stunning collection with modern appeal.
