I'm going to start a twister soon but stuck on color selection. I've looked at some on the board and love them all but on a few I see where some of the colors are blending too much for my taste after it is cut up. How do I prevent this? As for color choices, I tend to stay on the 'dark side'. Help please and thanks!

if you want distinct color contrast try picking lights-mediums and darks that will help you avoid the colors blending too much. color is not as important as contrast in most quilts, the colors are a definite personal choice; contrast can make it or break it!
