I have to use a pattern that is easy. Keep on making your suggestions. Thanks
Working with collections has sure been a great help to this otherwise color challenged gal. Layer cakes, charm packs, jelly rolls and other pre-cuts have been a tremendous help to me. Also, you can always pick out a focus fabric that you really like, then use the color dots on the selvage edge to help you pick out coordinating fabrics.
I'm enjoying reading the others suggestions and am glad you started this thread.
