This takes a bit of practice - but is well worth the effort imho.

It's difficult to take a bunch of fabrics and organize them light to dark.
Usually I do it and Lori comes over and fixes my mistakes, but I'm getting
better.

I use a ruby beholder (I like the set that has a red and green lense). When
you look through these, the color is removed and you see the value
(light/medium/dark). It helps. Sometimes I can tell by removing my
glasses - it's easier to see the differences in value if the fabrics are
very very blurry.

For this project, I would just be sure that my darks are really dark and
that my medium/lights really light - make sure there is a distinct
difference between the fabrics you are calling dark and the fabrics that you
are calling medium.

Have fun!!

So I am signed up for a class this Sunday afternoon
Log cabin Crazies -by The Buggy Barn.
I am suppose to bring 18 dark FQs and 18 medium/ light FQs.
Problem is I only see light and dark not mediums when I look fabric.
Does anyone else have this problem?
To me whites and pastels are the lights.
Beige,and gray are medium to me.
Sigh I know this is simple but its driving me crazy.
