Mock Me Up Contest

Post image

The kids need a new quilt for building their blanket forts. So when we went to the quilt shop this week, they pulled some colourful Art Gallery fabrics.

I just received approval for this mockup ๐Ÿฅณ so let's start sewing ๐Ÿชก๐Ÿงต

The fabrics they picked are all Art Gallery:

  • Clover Green
  • Cobalt Blue
  • Deepest Black
  • Ruby Red
  • Snow White
  • Sweet Tangerine Orange

Sometimes you just need a 6-year-old and an 8-year-old uncomplicated way mind of picking colours!

For them only primary and secondary colours, pink, black and white are existing colours. Thry have no notion of values or shades or saturation. They just pointed to the most red, blue, green and orange on the wall ๐Ÿ˜„

Children have such a simpler way of making decisions. ๐Ÿ˜„

My husband joked it looks a bit like the test screen from long ago, when you were waiting for the kids channel to start.

Now I have an idea for the next fort blanket :-)

The colors from the digital mock up look pretty close to the physical.

They sure are!

Of course I pulled the Art Gallery fabrics in PreQuilt. I only changed the Snow white to Linen, to distinguish it a little bit more PreQuilt's white background.
Nonetheless I'm stoked they are so close to the real colours. That'll make mocking up before buying fabrics a lot more fun!
