I have been struggling, trying to decide if I liked the colors for the next quilt that I want to make. I used colored pencils on graph paper, I played with fabric on my design wall, and finally I got the idea to cut out some fabric and make a mini version of the quilt. Now that worked well enough that I am starting to cut out fabric next.
Here is a picture of my next quilt, in a mini draft, leaning up on the stacks of the fabrics I have chosen for the quilt. There will be 10 shades of blue in one ribbon and 10 shades of purple in the other ribbon, with white for the background.
I will use this method of figuring out what I want again. It probably isn't a new idea, but it sure was a new idea for me. You might give it a try if you struggle as much as I do with decisions....
