I’ve been working on a couple of entries for the Canadian Quilters Try-A-Triad Challenge<\/a>. The only fabrics allowed are solid fabrics in the 3 primary colors – yellow, red and blue. I’m working with two different combinations of primary color fabrics. Below, on the left are the fabrics I started with, and on the right is another set – I much prefer this lighter shade of blue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I am working with these fabrics, I have realized that primary colors are not my favorites.   I\u2019m more drawn to tertiary colors. But I love a challenge, and I have some ideas, although nothing is finished yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I got to the point where I just had to use some other colors! So I took a break from the primary colors, and made some improv wonky plus\/cross blocks with ALL the colors. Most of the fabrics are from my scrap bins. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I need a few more blocks to complete the color wheel – teal and green<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

While I was working on these, I started getting lots of ideas about how to use the primary colors. So I’ll leave the rainbow blocks for now, and go back to the primary colors. I expect to complete at least one mini quilt this weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
