IMHO....If we all followed the "Could of, Should of, Would of" RULES .....Many of us would not be quilters. Do what appeals to You...what You like...what makes You happy.
Happy quilting, Beckie

i've made a number of breath-taking quilts with no black or white in them- contrast and interest can be achieved with any color as long as you pay attention to values- black and white in their place do add contrast but are certainly not required in order to create a successful quilt

Haven't heard that one...I have heard about the dash of turquoise to lift a scrappy...but that's about it. When it comes to colour/pattern I am a bit of a renegade....the only "rules" of quilting I follow are more along the construction/pressing/putting together stuff. It's all about tone/value really....black or white could be a detrimental addition to some quilts.
