Why You Should Be Making a Green Quilt
Sponsored LinksWhen it comes to quilting, there are colors we adore to use and then there are colours we seldom, if ever, use. I used to do that all the time, whenever I’d start a new project and in my head, I’d go through blues, whites, reds and pinks each time without exception.
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!
Right after that, I resolved to start a new colour I hadn’t used before. After some thought, I decided that my next quilt would be a green quilt.
I tell you what, that was one of the best choices 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 so easy to come up with new quilt ideas based around that color. I began with just easy green patterns and then progressed on to quilts that had plant motifs and even made a clover themed quilt as a tongue in cheek joke present for an irish friend 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!
