ironic, ain't it? i'm too crazy to be able to make a crazy quilt.
:shock:
I suspect you just need to study my quilt blocks Patrice. You can tell I ain't too friendly with a color wheel.
Step 1.) Drum into your head... "It's my quilt and I don't care if you don't like the colors."
Step 2.) Never ask anyone... "Do these go together?" They might actually know.
Step 3.) I like that Stack and Whack concept. Because you are so LB'ed, put all your dissimilar colors in the stack and rotate through them Mathematically. You get no choice as to what goes with what that way after you have set up the stack. Make more than one stack at a time with different fabrics. Halfway through, pull half the fabric squares off one stack (mathematically) and replace them with the fabric squares from the other stack. Keep cutting.
Step 5.) If it seems right... "Don't use that combination."
There is no step 4.
