Lights and Darks

Color hues and intensity has alway been a stumbling block for me when it comes to fabric selection. At last month's quilt guild meeting I decided to participate in the block exchange [courthouse steps]. With all that has been going on this past month, I didn't work on the block until last night [block exchange is tonight :o() so I didn't catch the fact that the block was to be made with light and dark values only. My stash is predominately medium especially in the purple family which is the color of this block. Today, I am making a mad dash to my friend's house to raid her stash and get my block ready for tonight. Bless Kathy for having a balanced stash and a sharing heart!
