There is a color I use sometimes, but not that often. It's pink. I love pink in nature, i love pink in things, and yes... I love pink in quilts and have used it. But it doesn't seem to get into my quilts THAT often. The last time was my String Bean Challenge quilt... remember that one? This is my new series of articles is called 'Inspiration Look Book' and I created a category on the right sidebar so you can find them all.
First my Pink collection. Actually I could just take this bin and use it! I think it would all blend super nice in a scrappy quilt. Add in a balancing color... Green, White, Black, Grey, Navy...
A lily from my Garden, real life PINK! I'm always amazed at the colors in flowers. This is paired with white, green, orange and some grey ground.
I love this Super cool pink round up!
My goodness... Pink Flamingo and Christmas, all pastel, with light blue, browns, taupes.. pops of green. look at the COLORS.
Of course pink candy must be had.
Do people really USE Pink Vespas? I love it! Bubblegum pink paired with black and many different greys.. i see this as a quilt!
Let's look at some quilts that are not baby quilts ... logcabins
Granny squares... or... Pink Vespa quilt ...
Gorgeous pink dresden being auditioned on grey .. I'd use all 4!
Look at this super cool improv quilt! all the made fabric, the fun units, I wonder if she ever finished it?
An antique quilt ends this Look Book. Pale pinks, navy and bright yellow! I wonder if those pink fabrics were more bold originally and faded to this color?
