I have been told that I have a great color sense and I agree, it's something that has been second nature to me since I began sewing. Although I once made a Twister quilt and used a print that I didn't think worked well after it was put together, although many people commented on that choice for giving the quilt zing. I like getting compliments on my color choices, but their opinion is not paramount to making a quilt. The one time I feel I have a problem is with Mystery Quilts, as I prefer knowing what the blocks will look like to choose colors, so I often cheat and wait until all the directions have been posted before making the Mystery.
