Pink: February’s Color-of-the-Month

In the month of hearts, roses, and valentines, pink is a natural for February. Being the only woman in my home, I enjoy touches of pink here and there, so I had a blast putting together this month’s show. Nine terrific designers and fabric companies offer their tips for using pink in a palette, and don’t miss how you can win a ginormous fabric bundle valued at over $60!  (If the text is too tiny in the presentation, click on the Full icon at the bottom to view it Full Screen.)

This is my 250th blog post and I’m celebrating with a big giveaway! I’m giving away this stunning Robert Kaufman pink fat quarter bundle when my blog reaches 150 subscribers.  So, if you haven’t subscribed already, do it now by clicking on the Subscribe buttons in the “Don’t Miss Out – Subscribe to My Blog” section of my sidebar.  When I reach 150, I’ll be giving this away to one lucky subscriber.  Ready?  Subscribe!

    Thanks for focusing on color — it is such an important part of working with fabrics. I belong to a bi-monthly challenge groups and wouldn’t you know it, but our last challenge was to use PINK! The results are wonderfully varied and a perfect example of how many different variations one can achieve with just a single color. http://twelveby12.blogspot.com/

    Pink is an interesting color. You get the feeling of girly when it is used, but really it is just another tone of white. It makes the darks pop and is fun to just throw in just because.

    I subscribe to you with google. wonderful color lessons. And really needed, it is visually upsetting to see beautiful quilting on poor color choices.
