Jeanne, you're gifted! I've seen some of your work and complimented you on a work in progress. I wish I had a good sense of color, the values and all. I've been shown in a workshop, but as a few things with me, I am challenged to "get it" yet. Jeanne, a straight quarter inch seam is a straight quarter inch seam...there's no more to it. Joining the blocks takes some practice...no more to that one, either. Quilting= practice. Ah, but the color thing...now that's a challenge to so many people. It's not something you can check by using a ruler to make sure it's accurate. The quilting...if you make a goof, that's what seam rippers are for. But the color thing.....it's one of those areas that can't be measured for accuracy, or ripped out to start over. You are blessed to understand colors. Bravo!
