    Default Help with colors
    I know with all your wonderful wisdom someone will be able to help me. I need an online fabric store that I can pick the fabrics I want and see them lined up to know if the color schemes are right. I am in need of six different color ranges and I have completely come to a block on this! TIA for any help!

    e-quilter.com has a very nice "design wall" feature that lets you push swatches around and also will multiply them for multiple patches. there's also a find-this-color feature that might be helpful. Quite likely other on-line stores have similar features; this one is easy to use.

    Try thousandsofbolts.com. They have a color picker tool. Maybe others can tell whether or not it's worked well for them.

    If you go to connectingthreads.com and click on freebies, you can then click on design table, and they also have eq layouts.. I tried to cut and paste the link here, but it wouldn't come up...
    Regards,

    I too have used fabric.com and was very happy.
    Like that they show what fabrics coordinate too!
