Hello,
I have seen so many wonderful tutorials in this forum and I have learned to many great things thanks to the member's generosity that I wanted to give something back.
I'm new to quilting, but I work as graphic designer making mostly covers for books. So I use a website to create a palette of colors for a cover.
The same method can be applied to combining colors for fabrics. Here is how I do it.
First I scan, take a photo or download a picture of the manufacturer's website of the fabric I want to work with.
In this case, let's use this photo.
Then, go to this website
http://www.cssdrive.com/imagepalette/
Upload your picture and the website takes the colors of the picture and gives you back a palette with 3 options, light, medium and dark combinations, plus a complete color palette of your picture.
This way you can find solids or prints that combine with your fabric.
Thanks for reading.
