QuiltInk Challenge Apr24

What a fun it’s been the Mar24 QuiltInk Challenge with a palette set up by Binded with Love Fabric Shop in QuiltInk, and 120 incredible mock-ups published in the QuiltInk Wall.  Let’s give a big congratulations to prettification for being the winner of this month!
For the April QuiltInk Challenge, I want to introduce you to a palette source of inspiration that I love and find incredibly useful for selecting your quilt color choices. It’s Colours Cafe, an Instagram account where Giga, a super creative individual, posts a different 5-color palette almost daily, and I must say, I love nearly them all!
For the April palette, I’ve decided to blend two palettes from Colour Cafe because I felt that five colors might not suffice for most of the quilts featured on QuiltInk, and to provide you with a little more flexibility. Therefore, I’ve combined palettes 1062 and 1068 from Colours Cafe to create the Spring palette for the #QuiltInkChallengeApr24. I hope you like it! It’s composed of the following Kona Cotton solids from the Kona Cottons palette in QuiltInk: Cernise, Valentine, Candy Pink, Natural, Acid Lime, Chartreuse, Clover, and Nightfall.”
