Still there is that Sea Glass (great name, don&#8217;t you think?) fabric that lightens up the piece. Also some of the other colors have blue and purple twinges (undertones?), which makes the palette look at little less dark and depressing.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_44379\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-44379\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-44379\" src=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n1-300x227.jpg\" alt=\"ColorPlay-Compass-n1\" width=\"300\" height=\"227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n1-300x227.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n1.jpg 752w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-44379\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">ColorPlay-Compass-n1<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The first palette I made is a little all over the place. It isn&#8217;t very cohesive. Of course, I like the Lake and Niagra fabrics. It is interesting that the color names are related to water, though perhaps not surprising. I am not a fan of the Rose. It looks sick to me.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_44378\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-44378\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-44378\" src=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n2-300x222.jpg\" alt=\"ColorPlay-Compass-n2\" width=\"300\" height=\"222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n2-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n2-768x568.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n2.jpg 771w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-44378\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">ColorPlay-Compass-n2<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I went straight to monochromatic, which was marginally successful. I ended up with two of the same fabrics. C&#8217;est la vie. I do like the blues. I think my favorite is the Azure, but the Robin&#8217;s Egg is nice, too.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_44377\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-44377\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-44377\" src=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n3-300x229.jpg\" alt=\"ColorPlay-Compass-n3\" width=\"300\" height=\"229\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n3-300x229.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n3.jpg 746w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-44377\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">ColorPlay-Compass-n3<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Palette n.3 is all over the place as well, though not a mess, I think. I don&#8217;t remember seeing Natural before. I have done a lot of palettes, so I could just not be remembering. The Wasabi looks like sunshine yellow on the bottom, which I like. It has more a green tinge on the side. The Garnet does not have enough red to look Garnet to me. I think it looks more plummy.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_44376\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-44376\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-44376\" src=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n4-300x222.jpg\" alt=\"ColorPlay-Compass-n4\" width=\"300\" height=\"222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n4-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n4-768x568.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n4.jpg 770w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-44376\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">ColorPlay-Compass-n4<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>N.4 might be my favorite. It isn&#8217;t quite monochromatic, but stays well in the cool shades realm. I like the way Surf looks more purple on the bottom. I think it adds to the palette even though I think one of\u00a0 the websites used to create this might be off. I think the lights look really good.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_44375\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-44375\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-44375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n5-300x222.jpg\" alt=\"ColorPlay-Compass-n5\" width=\"300\" height=\"222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n5-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n5-768x567.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ColorPlay-Nov30-n5.jpg 769w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-44375\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">ColorPlay-Compass-n5<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Finally, I decided to get out of my comfort zone and create something with more gold.
