These are supposed to be purple, but I am not using purple in this quilt. I find <a href=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2008\/08\/bullseye-progress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">purple to be a depressing color<\/a> when I use a lot of it in a quilt, so I tend to shy away from it.I don&#8217;t hate it, I just have other favorites. Since I used blues in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2017\/06\/en-provence-clue-3\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recent 4patches<\/a>, I am using a dark blue to go with those pieces<\/p>\n<p>I had to dig through a lot of my fabric to find these dark blues. I used up most of the my dark blues on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/tag\/stars-for-san-bruno-project\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Stars for San Bruno<\/a> quilts. I don&#8217;t use dark blue that much, but I am finding that it comes in handy periodically. Not all of these blues are super dark. They are, however, different and darker than the blues used in the four patches.<\/p>\n<p>I have started to sew the Peakys to the Spikes, but haven&#8217;t gotten very far. Small accomplishments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I went to Craft Night with dark blues and text fabrics in hand.
