Interestingly, there's a book called "Shades of Grey", by Jasper Fforde. It's a story about a society in which rank is determined by which colours can be seen by individuals - most people have a partial colour-blindness.
How funny -- I've often noticed how, when quilters stand up at guild meetings and such to show their quilts, the colors of their clothes compliment the colors in their quilts. Brenda, you take that to a delightful extreme with color and pattern in an exuberant way!
Our new self-published book is now available on Amazon
About Twelve by Twelve
We are twelve quilt artists who embarked on an art challenge together. We're from different places throughout the world and our artistic styles vary, but we share a love of art quilting and a desire to play, experiment, learn, and grow.
For four years (2007-2011), we each made a 12x12 inch quilted art piece on a designated theme or palette. See our Theme Series and our Colorplay series.
For the 2012 Series, we changed things a bit and made rectangular pieces, 20x12 inches with roughly 10 weeks between each challenge. As before, we had a designated theme for each challenge.
We shared our process, progress, and results on this blog. It remains a key record of our rich collaboration.

oh your shirt goes so well with your quilt!!! The Shades of Grey prints look very fun.

The shirt, the quilt, the upper right fabric pattern -- yup, there's some synchronicity going on!
