Quilts are not just functional items; they are also decorative pieces that can transform the look of your bedroom. However, achieving the perfect fit for a bed quilt requires thoughtful planning and consideration. On Tipsy Tuesday, Gudrun explored the key aspects of designing and sizing quilts for beds, from standard dimensions to customization tips.

Quilting is a celebration of color, and nothing makes a statement quite like bold and bright fabrics. Whether you love the energy of fiery reds, the depth of rich blues, or the vibrancy of neon hues, knowing how to make colors pop in your quilt designs is key to creating eye-catching pieces.

When it comes to quilting, few color palettes evoke such timeless charm and elegance as pastels. These soft, soothing hues—from soft yellows to blush pinks and minty greens—bring a delicate touch to any project. Whether you're a traditionalist or love experimenting with modern styles, pastel quilting fabrics offer endless possibilities for creating beautiful, memorable quilts.

Color is more than just a design element in quilting—it’s a storyteller. Each fabric choice you make contributes to the mood, theme, and narrative of your quilt. While our first blog introduced the basics of color theory, this post will dive deeper into how you can use color to create a cohesive story, highlight specific elements, and work with collections of fabric separated by color families. Let’s explore some advanced tips to make your quilts truly unforgettable.
