Block of the Month
I am joining a Block of the Month at the LQS. It is done in a 3 colorway. The colors they chose for the sample are light teal green, black, and a white with small black design in it. I am having troubles deciding on 3 colors to choose for mine. Anyone ever do a Block of the Month in a 3 colorway? Anyone have any suggestions on 3 colors to put together for it?

red, white & blue; blue, yellow, white; pink, black, white; purple, pink, white; orange, yellow, red;
there are so many different combinations you could use!!! what is your favorite color? start with that then choose 2 that go with it- it sounds as if you need a light, medium & dark? so you could even do it with 3 of the same color in different values- very light, medium, dark blue...
do you not like the ones they chose?
i have done many bom's---they usually come with a kit & pattern each month---so you use the fabrics that are in your kit--are they somehow letting you choose differently from their kits? is it a pattern only bom? one of my lqs's do sometimes offer us some choices---like one time we could choose the reproduction fabrics version or batiks or novelties---but they still put together the little kits with the pattern each month- we signed up for which version we wanted to do.
but if you do in fact get to choose your fabrics---have fun with it.
