OPENING A NEW LQS, NEED COLOR HELP
#151
I think it's important to have light, medium and dark values is all lines of fabric. That's what really makes a quilt sing!!!
Personally, my living room colors are in a deep red (wine color but can't remember the name) towards brick or maroon actually. I have trouble finding much in this color way. Lots of burgandy, purple, but those don't work.
Good luck on your new endeaver! Dani

Lots of neutrals, Asians, and Batiks! And Purples! I have two LQS, one of which carries hardly any blues as the OWNER doesn't care for that color! I don't care for repros, but that doesn't mean the next quilter doesn't have a passion for them. So I guess you have to carry everything! LOL!
Let me know when you open, I'll come shop!

I have heard rumors that a new LQS is opening in La Verne, CA??
will this still be online or are you going to open up a store???
In answer to your question. I think you need to have a large supply of all the new fabrics. Be current with the styles and make sure you also provide classes to go with the quilts you have on display.
Most important is attitude to the customers.
Good luck

I would love to see more vibrant colors, all shades....am so tired of looking and all I see are tiny florals in pastels....now don't get me wrong, each color and print has it's purpose, but give us some variety....I love teals, greens and blues, but will never buy a huge print in some off the wall color combo....JMHO
