Why Your Next Green Quilt Will Have Your Friends Green With Envy
Sponsored LinksWhen it comes to quilting, there are colours we like to use and then there are colors we barely, if ever, use. I used to try this all of the time, whenever I’d start a new project and in my head, I’d go through blues, whites, reds and pinks every time without fail.
These were always my favourite colors to work with. What I did not consider was whether my projects would look nice in colours other than this. It was in recent times that I started feeling like I was getting stuck in a groove.
After sitting and thinking about what I could do to get out of it, I realised that I never actually considered using other colors. Well, I was going to rectify that!
Shortly after that, I determined to start a new quilt with a color I had not used before. After some deliberation, I made a decision that my next quilt would be a green quilt.
I tell you what, that was one of the best calls I had made in a while. While I made quilts in other colors, there were such a lot of different quilts that worked better as green quilts.
It was also easy to come up with new quilt ideas based around that color. I started with just straightforward green patterns and then went on to quilts that had plant motifs and even made a clover themed quilt as a tongue in cheek joke present for an irish girlfriend of mine. We had a good laugh and it remains one of her favourite quilts today.
I should know, it was covering her bed the last time I went over there.
While there are a number of other things you can do with this colour, a green quilt will not only stick out from other quilts, its sure to be a favorite among your collection. So give it a go today!
