TOAD-SPO - December ‘21

Posted by Taylor Krz on

Some of you may already know this, but I regularly work on illustration/design projects for Microsoft. You may be wondering why I’m mentioning a major tech company in my quilting newsletter/blog - well, they’re actually experimenting with some exceptional color palettes that I get first-hand sneak-peeks at! They’re not only unique but play with lots of different tones, hues, unexpected color combinations, and textures. You can apply all of these techniques in your quilting!
