Ever find yourself stumped for a background color? Fortunately for all of us, Kaffe Fassett is a master of color. All you have to do when you have no idea what color to use is to visit Kaffe's website and browse.
A red flower? Try teal green or a strong blue for the background.
Pink florals? How about a strong terracotta?
Stitching vegetables? How about a soft dove gray to set off those green leaves?
When stumped, consult an expert. Then pull out threads from your stash in similar colors and arrange the skeins around the outside of your piece. A color or two will pop out from the rest and there you go!
Kaffe knows color. He'll help you know color, too.
