Tip for quilt planning

Here is a trick I use sometimes for planning the colors in my quilt blocks. I collect paint chips at home supplies stores and then I use them to match colors. I just punch holes in one corner and then but them on a ring.
Just a tip.

Great tip, thanks for sharing that. I had never thought of that before, but thats a wonderful idea. Kinda like using a color wheel.

Yes it is like using a color wheel. But I find that with the chips I can get different shades and hues. I also use electric quilt, but I am more hands on.
