Why You Should Be Making a Green Quilt
Sponsored LinksWhen it comes to quilting, there are colors we love to use and then there are colours we rarely, if ever, use. I used to do this 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 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 best calls 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 easy to come up with new quilt ideas based around that color. I started with just straightforward green patterns and then went on to quilts that had plant motifs and even made a clover themed quilt as a tongue in cheek joke present for an irish girlfriend 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 several other things you can do with this color, a green quilt won’t just stand out from other quilts, its bound to be a favourite amongst your collection. So give it a go today!
