CHOOSING
COLORS FOR YOUR
GROWTH CHART
We wanted this release to be endearing
regardless of which version you choose to
create. With the Woodland creatures, softer,
muted shades help bring out the curling
plants and flowers that swirl up this chart,
while the jungle themed variation focuses on
bolder colors and plenty of greens and blue.
FABRICS
Stick with a neutral that will work well with the
various animals. We decided on muslin for
the woodland creatures and light blue cotton
for the jungle animals.
THREADS
Whether woodland or jungle blocks, each
will have their own thread colorway. Develop
a palette that conveys each animal, but won’t
involve too many shades.
NOTIONS
This growth chart will require a few basic
notions that are common with quilt blocks,
such as a good pair of appliqué scissors, a
straight edge, rotary cutter, and tape.
