Thank heavens my daughters have color sense. I do not. One or the other usually has the final say when I am buying fabric or putting together a quilt. My eldest has an artistic talent, she can but a bouquet of flowers on a table and they look artistically place. I set it on the table and it looks like I put a vase full of flowers on the table. Not sure what she does to the flowers, but people will come in and notice where mine they do not. Oh well.
But I do know what you mean about the board. If you need help, just ask. Usually there are enough comments to get a good understanding of what and how to do something.
