I am so glad you are enjoying the blog. I really appreciate you letting me know. It's a good project for me. So many people do not have the time or the opportunity to take color classes---or they don't know how or where to start learning more about color. So, I hope this blog helps. I would love people to feel comfortable working with colors as they redecorate their homes, create their gardens, make quilts, design/create art, select clothing, work in their jobs, etc. I hope this blog will make a difference in how people view colors, how they work with them---and in the end, I want everyone to enjoy the colors that nature has so beautifully gifted us.

I guess I was very lucky as my mother made me a glorious red coat out of wool (she was a beautiful seamstress) when I was in elementary school. I loved that coat. It was so cozy during those cold winters. I doubt my grandmother knew the term prostitute. If she did, she would have never revealed that she knew the word. Now red lipsitck and red rouge might have been another matter! But that would have been my dad who would have stopped me at the front door. Hi Joanne,
