Challenge 52 - Week 25

This week's challenge is one that I signed up for at the beginning of the month and have done nothing about ...At the start of June Very Berry Handmade posted an interesting blog article about colour, and how to 'extract' it from photographs using picture editing software to creat colour schemes. This seemed like a great idea, but them the month got busy! So this morning I downloaded Paint.NET , found a picture on Pinterest, and had a go ...

I used the dropper tool to select the colours in the photograph and then created the 'paint chart' under the image using these colours (just draw little squares and fill them with the selected colour), now i'm going to look through my yarn and fabric stash to match these colours. I'm hoping i'll be able to great something  using these colours in the next week or two.
