Why You Should Be Making a Green Quilt
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 favorite colours to work with. What I didn’t consider was whether my projects would look good in colors other than this. It was only recently that I have began feeling like I was getting stuck in a rut.
After sitting down and considering what I could do to get out of it, I realized that I never really considered using other colours. Well, I was going to change 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 finest decisions I had made in a while. While I made quilts in other colours, there were so many 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!
