Here's an amazing color picking app, Color Supply, it's intended for use in choosing color schemes for digital illustrations, so it gives the hex values for the main colors. But I thought it was a great all-on-one-screen tool for looking at color choices. You can scroll through complementary, analogous, etc... and change the colors in each setup.
I thought it might be a good resource for quilters. There's a little essay/explainer on the site about why to choose warm vs. cool colors for branding a website/product and it made me think about that in terms of "branding" the quilts we're making. If you're looking to make a happy quilt choose this: X, if you're wanting a somber quilt choose this: X instead, etc. Color tells a story, evokes emotions, etc.
Hey, is there a hex value to kona cottons (or other fabric line's solids) chart somewhere?
I used this tool to help me pick fabrics to use in the Good Fortune mystery quilt.
Pics of those choices tomorrow...
Great tool! I'll have to try it out a little more.
ReplyDeleteIt's a little different from the other other online tools, I liked the tonal toggles toward the right side of the side of the screen.
