Thank you, thank you! I've been sewing and quilting for almost fifty years and learned something new watching this video. I'm pretty good at putting colors together but couldn't figure out why some combos looked better than others. The grey scale is what did the trick! How could I not have learned this before. I got my phone and looked at the blocks of my current quilt and seeing it in grey scale showed me immediately which blocks were wrong and why! OH MY GOODNESS! Can't say thank you enough.

Don't give up! No matter how bad you think the end result is, you have grown from the experience. If you give quilts as gifts, I promise you the recipient will cherish it because it was made with love. Maybe you will find that quilting is not the creative outlet for you. That's ok, try something else. Everyone needs a creative outlet. It feeds the soul.

I just want to sew something pretty. Now you have stuff on needles??? ohmyword!! I had no idea quilting was going to be so hard. Can't I just find fabric prints/solids that go good together and quilt them up?. I mean, for those that have sponges for brains these vlogs are a timeless treasure but for those of us that have no holes in our brains for this stuff to sink through is like trying to learn another language completely. I still love watching them and I think I finally got that taking a black and white picture thing. Love all your hacks. Very helpful. I use them. They're great!!

I have a lot of prints, and every time I'm working on another new project, I need some solid or tone on tone type fabric. So off I go to the fabric shop. Lately, to try to wart off the binge shopping, I started to pick up solids and tone and put them in a special place altogether. So far, it's working better, not perfect! But it's better!

These exercises will help a lot and might even get me out of that color/pattern comfort zone you talked about. In February I went to the fabric store with a friend who was choosing fabrics for a quilt for her son. The ladies in the store helped her pick 4 fabrics that I would have NEVER put together and her quilt is looking great. Here's hoping I can learn to do that! Hugs & prayers to you and your family!

an important note about "black and white " photos or photo copies. its MUCH more accurate these days!!!! but back in my wayward youth i worked in a copy shop, and our copiers would turn anything red into jet black. so... pink? jet black redbrown? jet black if you cant seem to make this system work, you MAY have a camera filter or a photo copy system that is making a specific color "darker" than it really is. Also watch out for reflective bits in the fabrics, as they can mess up the photo sensor

Wow! Great exercises! Like some of the others have said, I’m not a natural when it comes to colour. Your videos have been so helpful.

Choosing the colors/patterns is my favorite part :) but I've never used a color wheel. Now I have a new 'I need this' notion lol I take photos of my projects through out the process to help with color choices, block placement. It amazes me what shows up in the photo that doesn't necessarily show 'in person'.

I know. Those secondary patterns can really sneak up. Sometimes in your favour, sometimes not.
