Color Inspiration

Where to begin when choosing a color scheme for your quilt

Nature has inspired us from the beginning of time and is a wonderful place to look for ideas for a sucessful color palette. 

Lavendar Color Combination of the Month Inspired by Sarah

Electric Indigo, Iris, Hyacinth, Romaine, Rose Beige - Shouts to Us that Spring is Here

Picture
Lavendar is a popular color for Spring and weddings!  One of my favorite color combination is mixing greens with purples.  Add variations of shades and tints and a nuetral such as taupe or greys would work nicely too and you have a fabuous color combination for a beautiful quilt, outfit or painting!
