I would start to sew up what I had and fill in with others as need be.
|
I just love teal , I just can't get enough! But lately ... I have had a tendency to buy yellow.. and its soo out of character for me.

A friend of mine always makes real complicated patterns and says " never make that one again, you can't see the pattern". I always try to tell her to put some color in them.
Every thing she makes turns out a pale shade of white. I have given her fabric assortments with a pattern to try and they when they're finished they are as pale as can be. She just thought a differnent color would look better! She refuses to think it may be her and not the pattern or fabric. Try making one simple block of your choice in one color combo. Now go to the next color on the color wheel and do the same. keep repeating this till you go all the way around the wheel. this is just to practice using colors out of your comfort zone. Now put them together for a lap quilt. |

I have an array of colors, just need to work on buying baticks!!!
|
I am pretty good at having all colors, but never find myself buying florals and I see beautiful quilts made with them. I made myself buy soft florals and made a mini. Liked it,too. But still don't pick them.

Buy neutrals so you are able to combine with your favorites and sew them up!
|
I tend to lean toward certain colors. But I figure if that is what I like, so what.
|
probably would if I had a stash, But I love purples and blues
