    Default Fun with color palettes

    Sometimes I like to view color palettes for some inspiration when planning quilt projects.

    Check these links out and have some fun. The first link is from Design Seeds® | for all who ? color. Beautiful combinations.

    The second link is from Sherman Williams Paint Co. They make a program called Chipit, which allows you to upload your pictures and the program selects colors. I did one for my rug just for fun. And a fall photo. Enjoy.

    Sharyn, I was in Lowes this morning near the paint department and I told one of my granddaughters I'd love to pick up paint chip samples but I was always afraid they would think I was being greedy - she assured me I could tell them I'm doing the whole house and would be back when I made my color choices. They really do come in handy when picking colors for quilts though and I think their choices together are a great idea for inspiration.

    Be warned. I am BORED.
    This could be dangerous.

    When you get cold just go stand in the corner.
    They are usually 90 degrees.

    A giraffe's coffee would be cold by the time it reached the bottom of his throat.
    Ever think about that? No? You only think about yourself??

    That is so cool. I'm really color challenged. Thanks!
