Doing that avoids some of the matchy-matchy that can be a bit boring, but still keeps the colors compatible.
For example: One has a blue fabric and a green fabric - she would use a blue-green fabric as the third one instead of matching either the blue or the green.
I just read about Jinnie's color matching and it was on the internet somewhere - I think on her studio site but not sure. When she talked about bridge fabrics, that made a light go off - she showed how to add sparkle with the bridge fabrics . Really great to learn.
Edit: Went to look realy quick - at jinniebeyer.com under tips and tricks.
