Pattern or Color?
#1
When you are looking for a new quilt to make and are checking out magazines or quilt books, is it the pattern or the colors that that are used that catch your eye? I'm sure we all have made quilts that our color choice does nothing for the pattern.

usually the color catches my eye first. But I always go back through the magazine or book and look at the patterns better when I'm ready to choose a new project. Because, you're right - your color choices can make or break a quilt.

Usually the color catches my eye, but I try to develop my own color combination and not copy the pattern. Sometimes it works and I like it better than the pattern. Sometimes not. I find myself drawn to the same colors over and over. I try to work with something different.
