Three Bears Rule of Color is a guideline painters use for the amount of each color to use in their art, and I learned it as a watercolorist. I apply the same guidelines to my quilts, and here it is: use a large amount of your main color, a smaller amount of your second color, and a tiny amount of your third color. A lot, some, a little. Split-Complementary has three colors with great contrast, but not too much, while Complimentary has two colors with huge contrast. Hi Anita – Great questions.

You literally have more color palettes than you could ever use, and it's fulfilling to see your color work come to life in your quilts. Catherine –

What is Three Bears Rule? What is the difference between a Spit-complimentary and a Complimentary color. Are you saying to use the rule like in making the fabric bundle, but then adding a complimentary color. But how much?
