    Mine is being painted today in SW white mint. Very pleasing much like the spring green mentioned above. Green is my fav color and I wanted it light.

    “Costal Fog” by. Benjamin Moore. I love how it seems to change colors with the light. It is a greenish grey.

    I have about the same color as Jmore, a light spring green. My whole house has this wall color. I took a fabric scrap to the paint store and had the paint mixed to match it.

    I've never been able to select a color for my sewing room since it was unused bedroom. I waited over four months before I moved my stuff in for my hubby to paint it.... never happened so I moved everything. THEN he says "I was going to paint it for you!" Since it was the start of planting....
    Now I'm in an apartment that I'm not allowed to paint so the walls are a creamy beige. But I have a big window and good lights. I'm aiming to cover the exposed walls with a displays and storage.... and quilts and wall hangings.
    The people who bought my house mentioned to my neighbour that "this lady sure liked blue!" The whole main floor was painted a mediuim sky blue. Wonder where she got that idea?

    To make for true color readings in designing a quilt, I want my sewing room bright white with “daylight” bulb lighting. Colored walls make colored fabric “read” different.

    Mine looks almost the same as jmoore but more to a blue shade pastel. I am very happy with it and it works well. I have had avocado green and yellow also but prefer this.

    I like to keep my sewing room walls as light as possible-this room was already painted boring beige lol but it works because my room is so colorful.

    My sewing room is a pale orchid color with a hint of grey to it. Goes with pretty much anything on my walls.
